Oh How I Love Thee! (#18)

God looks upon us -- “How do I love you? Let me help you count the ways.”

We have noted a number of ways in which God has displayed His love for us and acknowledged the type of response with which His love should be met. I encourage you to continue meditating on God’s great love. Continue to allow His love to be the model for your life.

As Paul stated to the brethren at Thessalonica:
“May the Lord direct your hearts TO THE LOVE OF GOD and to the steadfastness of Christ.” ( 2 Thessalonians 3:5 ESV)

May we keep our affections under the direction of God. This will both serve as a safeguard for our spiritual walk as well as a power toward persevering through this life’s journey. We should have a strong desire to be directed into a life depicted by being around, upon, under, and within God’s all encompassing love. This is the last focus of this series, but praise God His love endures forever!

Have a great day IN GOD’S LOVE!
Carl
