David says, “How precious also are thy thoughts unto me, O God! how great is the sum of them! If I should count them, they are more in number than the sand: when I awake, I am still with thee” (Psa 139:17-18 KJVLite). John 1:13 says, “Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends” (KJVLite).

The author of a well known hymn, Fredrick M. Leman (1917), beginning to describe the love of God, says: “The love of God is greater far than tongue or pen could ever tell, it goes beyond the highest star and reaches to the lowest hell…” Can we, being mortal, even begin to grasp the height, and depth, and breadth of God’s love?

As we go about our daily business, God’s great love keeps, and protects us. What an awesome loving God we serve! God’s love for us never changes, God’s love is not seasonal nor is it dependent on our ability to love Him. God’s love is always available to us. Father, I pray in Jesus’ name, that we keep Your commandment “That he who loveth God love his brother also.” Amen.
