How do I know that Jesus Christ loves my mom and I?

I know because it's true, in fact he loves the human race because he put it all on the line to  Deliver us from our sins He went through a day and night of
  1. humiliation: verbal and physical
  2. spit on his face
  3. slaps and fist hitting on the face
  4. pushing and (perhaps tripping him up)
  5. thorn ‘crown’ pushed on to his head and forehead
  6. torture
  7. flogging
  8. hunger and thirst he was not given food the last day and night
  9. excruciating pain when he was nailed to the pole through his wrists and feet
  10. and a torturous, slow agonising for 3 hours while he was dying on the stake
  11. mocking and ridiculing to the last moments
All this he went through to be able to save ME! And more than that: he could have anytime decided to call the angels and call the whole thing off, in fact he alone with the power invested on him could have stopped it, but he went through with it, not even opening his mouth in defence, when they tired him at the local Jewish court at night(!) totally unacceptable procedure, and accused him of all evil things such as blasphemy: although he truly was God’s Son, sedition and rebelling against the government and misleading the people, lying, being a drunkard and gluttony and keeping company with bad people, oh, he got all those lie all right. But he endured it all patiently to save ME!
Would you do that for me? Would you give up your life for me? Just to save me? Would you even go through torture, humiliation and pain and dying like a criminal when you have done nothing wrong? Seeing that your own people betray you and hate you? Would you do it for me even if I were not a family member not your mum or sister or daughter, not even your best friend but a stranger?
People, even friends do let you down most of the times when you need them in proportionately much, much smaller things and no one would ever die for you! Think about it.
Do I know how much Jesus loves me? Oh, yes! I really do know it.
