He is faithful. When I am unfaithful, he remains faithful. Unending faithfulness. Did I mention that He is FAITHFUL?
A God of love….but such love. How is it that he can love me with all of my faults, with all of my meanness, with all of my lack of goodness of which He has in abundance? How is it that He can love me to such a point that I cannot understand, unconditionally, and yet He has enough love to love my neighbors, my friends, the people I pass in the grocery store, and people I will never meet? How is it that I mess up time and time again, and yet he forgives, picks me up, dusts me off, and continues to love me? What love is this but the greatest expression of LOVE. Truly, forgiveness of my wrongs, refusing to hold them against me. He looks at my potential, at what I can do for Him, through Him, at how I can love Him in return. How?
Such a concept that I cannot fully understand can be summed up in those simple-sounding words that we hear so often, “God IS love.” He is not a feeling, but He is an action. In His case, “Luv is a verb,” and how thankful I am to be loved.
