There is no end to God’s love for us. His mercy is always there, ready to be poured out upon us. No matter how much we love someone here on earth, God’s love is deeper and broader. He loves us in a perfect way that is always patient, always kind, and always forgiving. God’s love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. His love always protects and perseveres; and never fails us. (1 Corinthians 13: 4-8)
God’s majesty is reflected in the way that He loves. His love has the power to transform us.
Our God is the God of second and third and fourth – and forty-ninth – chances! And yet there are times when so much fear builds up in our hearts that we begin to worry we are not good enough for God. We doubt the depth of His love, and we separate from Him. If only we understood how much He wants good things for us. If only we understood that His mercy and love are real and always available to us.
Dear God, help us to ponder Your great majesty. When our fear rises up, help us to trust in Your great love for us.
“Today, the majesty of God enveloped and transpierced my soul to its very depths. The greatness of God is pervading my being and flooding me so that I am completely drowning in His greatness. I am dissolving and disappearing entirely in Him as my life-source, as in perfect life.”1
