I think one of the most fascinating things I ever heard about Karl Barth -- the 20th century theologian was when he was asked to tell people the most significant thing about God that he knew. He thought for a minute and then began to sing:
"Jesus loves me this I know, for the Bible tells me so..."
How true -- Remember the "Why" of Christmas -- Jesus Loves You.

I'd have to agree with this sentiment - of all of the things I know about Jesus, through experience, the Scriptures, and anything else - the most fascinating and life-changing truth for me has always been in the fact that He loves me. Why He would, is quite beyond me, but I'm still very grateful. :)
