The Amazing Love of God

There is nothing as magnificent and awesome in all of creation as the Amazing Love of God. That the Creator of the all things, visible and invisible, should love seemingly insignificant people is a wonder that saints have pondered throughout the ages.

"What is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him?" said the Psalmist long ago (Psalm 8:4).

Paul, the New Testament Apostle, knew something about this great love of God, and he longed that believers of all ages would begin to understand and comprehend something of it's length, depth, height and breadth. It is a message we need today.

God is for us .. His Grace (undeserved favor) is extended freely to His children. He is our Heavenly Father, unlike any human father or friend.

This is an incomprehensible truth - "it surpasses knowledge" (Eph. 3:19), wrote Paul. At the same time, the incredible quality of God's love can be revealed to us by the Spirit of God .. and that was Paul's heartfelt prayer for the Church of Jesus Christ of all ages.

May the Amazing Love of God encourage and delight us as we meditate on this wonderful truth in this very special 31-day Devotional.
