Love and hatred are similar in one way; they both have no limits. While we have each felt at least a little of the all-consuming power of hatred, we have almost no experience with unlimited love. This is why we struggle with the amazing, unrelenting love of God. Can He really love us without limits? The Bible states it clearly: “Whoever does not love does not know God, because GOD IS LOVE”. He doesn’t “have” love as if it were just another of His many attributes, instead it states: God “IS” love. To limit His love would be to deny who He is; love is His very being. Lord God Almighty, I want to understand the depths of Your love and offer it freely to others. Teach me to receive and freely offer Your boundless, immeasurable, inexhaustible, irrepressible love.
“This is the day that the LORD has made, I will rejoice and be glad in it!” Psalm 118:24 ESV. The table is set for a brand-new day. Only God knows exactly what is already prepared for my arrival in it. I must now leave behind days gone by and ready myself for new insight, a higher life, and greater things. Am I up for what today will bring? Only the day will tell, but the One who provides it will also carry me through it. One thing is sure; I will walk upon on sacred footprints since the Alpha and Omega has already trod this moment in advance, sprinkling blessings and divine opportunities throughout. I must pay attention so I don’t miss a thing He has placed along the path. Lord God, Lover of My Soul, today is the day You have made; I am so good with that and already rejoicing in what is to unfold. Lift me in Your arms and carry me through with faith, joy, and purpose.
