#287. Depths Of Love

and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.
Ephesians 3:19


The love of Christ goes beyond human comprehension. Where can we find the words to describe its sweetness, greatness and faithfulness?

To begin to get an idea of Jesus love, we must understand the glory He came from - and how far He came to pour Himself out in shame upon the earth. But who can tell how great His majesty was? He reigned supreme over all creatures, God over all, blessed forever.

And who can tell how low He descended? To bleed, to die, to suffer - these were unthinkable for the very Son of God. To suffer such unparalleled agony, to endure a death of shame and desertion by His Father - this is a depth of love our minds cannot begin to grasp. Let this love fill your heart with adoring gratitude.
