Celebrate Love!

Oh, the things we do for love! Yes, I painfully acknowledge the list and lengths Mr. Bill goes to prove his love for me. Now, I’ve given a few really good efforts myself: I went hunting with him … until I almost shot his hunting dog; I fished with him … until he told me to be quiet ‘cause I was scaring the fish; I even tried crow-shooting … until I insisted we take an injured bird to the vet. Hey, I tried! Really, I did!

Central to all His mercy and compassion for man, is God’s great love! John wrote, “God is love.” (1 John 4:16) What else would cause Creator of the universe and Sovereign King of all to send His only Son to the cruelty of a cross! Imagine what you will, but it was love! The mercy and compassion of Almighty God are poured richly upon us because of His great – unconditional – deep – amazing love for the likes of me. I’m so thankful Mr. Bill doesn’t measure my love for him by my interests in huntin’ and fishin’ … good thing! May the measure of our love for God be in seeing Him on the throne of heaven and the throne of our hearts. Celebrate His great love!
