The depth of the ocean is deeper than the mind can fathom. There is life, even at thousands of feet under the ocean. That is a good relation to how much God has love for us. More than we could ever figure beyond our comprehension is how much He loves us. Paul described God's love for us as "the width and length and depth and height- to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge "
God's love is infinite, limitless and beyond measure. When we feel alone and unloved and feel that we are at the end of despair we only need to think about how much our Lord loves us. God's love is deeper than the deepest ocean.
I have a Friend whose faithful love
Is more than all the world to me;
It’s higher than the heights above,
And deeper than the boundless sea. —Anonymous

ReplyDeleteA very big part of the ocean is undiscovered, so I wonder how many of God's creatures have gone undiscovered.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how I could make it through my current season in life without God's love. I am asking WHY??? a lot lately, but I know HE does not make mistakes and loves us more than we can ever understand.
