“May you experience the love
of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made
complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God." – Ephesians 3:19 New Living
Translation
It is a sad thing
that so many people go through life without feeling loved. Even Christians, at
times, feel love has escaped them. Due to events from their past they may feel
they don’t deserve to be loved or perhaps they were never shown love by those
closest to them. This makes the love God has for us seem like a foreign
concept; something that seems too good to be true.
Regardless of our feelings, the love of God is a real thing that can be experienced by all. Personal human barriers must either be dropped or broken down for this love to be fully experienced. Maybe you have done something in your life that you regret. You have brought pain to another individual … perhaps a loved one … and you don’t feel that you deserve ANYONE’S love, let alone God’s. We must understand that the love of God is tied to His grace and the definition of grace is ‘undeserved favor’. So the love we are offered by God is not something we deserve, but it is something that is freely offered by God as a part of His plan of salvation.
If you are a believer, don’t torture yourself any longer. God’s love is for you too and it is free of charge. It is the only thing in this life that is worth anything and it is free … surrender your will to the love of God and be blessed. Until next time, walk with the King and be a blessing!
