IT'S BEEN SO HECTIC HERE LATELY that I have not participated in Memory Monday for a while. Although I haven't participated, I've been rereading my Memory Monday posts, which I love to do. I like to see what was going on at the time of my posts...like reading old journals. So, while reading over our memory verses (20-21) from our couples Sunday School class for next week, I decided to add the rest of this passage of scripture to those that we're doing for class next week.
I LOVE THIS PASSAGE of scripture and how it talks about the "love of Christ". If you think about the love of Christ and it's width and length and depth....it's just mind blowing. Think about it this way...if you hold an object in your hand, you can cognitively see and feel and know its width and length and depth. But, to know the love of Christ is to know a love that has NO width and NO length and NO depth. IT'S LIMITLESS, BOUNDLESS, INFINITE. There are no fences, there are no lines, there are no doors. Just border-less love....more than would fill the deepest oceans and more than would ever dream of filling up the entire universe. More I tell you. It's incomprehensible to think of the love of the Savior. THAT'S THE KIND OF LOVE that I am so not worthy of. But, even in my unworthiness, He still crawled up on a tree, on a hill, in the broiling sun, with open gaping wounds on His body from being flogged, with nails in His feet and hands, with a sword plunged into His side....and HE DIED, so that I (we) could live for eternity with Him in glory. For me. For you. For my (our) unworthiness. For our sin ridden lives. All He asks from us is that we repent (turn from) our sin and ask His forgiveness and ask for His entrance into our hearts forever. Unlike gifts of this world, it's a gift with absolutely no strings attached. It's free, and I pray that if you haven't done so, that you would reach out and take it.
