THE UNFATHOMABLE DEPT OF CHRIST'S LOVE
1 John 4:10 KJV
Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
God's love for us is so enormous. It transcends human understanding. It is so much lavished on man that the more you probe deep to fathom such a dept of generosity, the more you are lost in amazement. It is amazing to know that while we were yet sinners Christ died for us, it is so great amazement to know that while we turned everyone to his own way, it still pleased God to bruise Him for our sake
Everyday, every moment, every second, I am being swallowed up in admiration and wonder of the height and depth, length and breath of His love and care, His peace and joy that flows and glows graciously in my heart.
Paul in his epistle to the Romans, being overwhelmed by this admiration and wonder exclaimed, ' Oh, how great are God’s riches and wisdom and knowledge! How impossible it is for us to understand his decisions and his ways! —Romans 11:33 NLT
The psalmist summed up his own bewilderment thus:
'Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto it'— Psalm 139:6 KJV
The songwriter put it this way:
Amazing grace! How sweet the sound...
The fact remains that you will be completely lost in thought trying to fathom the depth of this Amazing Love.
BLESSED, INDEED, ARE THEY WHOSE GOD IS THE LORD!
