"This is My commandment, that you love one another, just as I have loved you. "Greater love has no one than this, that one lay down his life for his friends. "You are My friends if you do what I command you.” John 15:12-14
Being the father of two wonderful boys has provided me with a perspective and insight of the way our Loving Father loves each of us-He loves all of us unconditionally, with a CRAZY LOVE. There are times that our sons do not follow instructions or even rebel against warnings, but it does not matter-I love them both unconditionally!
Sadly, there are many people who desperately seek some sort of intense love and care in their relationships. Far too many people sadly do not realize that God loves them far deeper and greater than the most loving and caring human parent possibly can. The evidence lies in what God did for us by his mercy and grace-sending his only Son to die on the cross for us, while we were/are certainly not deserving of it.
Today is Valentine’s day and if even if you are feeling down with the blues today, just ponder for a moment how incredible it is that the Creator of all of the universe loves you and me in such an unimaginable and amazing way!
It’s through our gratitude and praise of God’s grace and love that love flows through us and into all our other relationships...
