So how does God show that He loves us. Is it by giving us good health, a long life. A loving family and a huge social circle. A thriving business or a bulging bank balance.

Eternally nothing we have from God compares to it. So in the words of Paul,
2 Corinthians 9:15
Thanks be to God for his inexpressible gift!
