Memory Verse : “Love each other in the same way I have loved you.” John 15:12, NLT
Jesus loves everyone.
Matthew 9:9-10
Matthew is a tax collector. That means his job is to collect money from people, but he takes more money than he should. That makes people very angry! But Jesus loves Matthew and wants to be his friend so He tells Matthew: “Follow Me!” And Matthew follows Jesus! Jesus has dinner at Matthew’s house and a lot of people show up. Some people ask, “Why would Jesus want to be friends with someone who makes bad choices?” Because Jesus loves everyone.
