No Greater Love

To try to express a love so real, That far surpasses all we think or feel, Can one define itcan picture or song? Yet we have this assurance: We know we belong. The Lord of love, yes, it is He, Who holds our hearts and makes them free. The beginning is now, every moment a start, A newness of life, a fullness of heart. It’s the love of God we continually see, A freedom to live, a glory to be. It’s a love with no beginning or end, Of a precious Lord, a Savior, a friend. Cheryl Elton Without faith in Christ, we are separated from God because of our sin (Isaiah 59:2; Romans 3:23). The good news? God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us (Romans 5:8). Jesus died to beat sin, and, when He rose from the dead, He beat death (Romans 5:10). Therefore, in Christ, God’s love for us cannot be shaken (Romans 8:18-39). How does this promise give you comfort? What questions do you have about what this means?
