It goes deep!



What or whom do you love? Have you ever been in love so deeply that you would offer to do anything for that person including give you last or even your life? If you have loved someone this deeply, can you ever truly “not” love them?
Gospel singer Kierra Sherad has a song entitled “Indescribable.” The title alone lets you know that she is singing about the undeniable power of healing, salvation, freedom and forgiveness that lies within the power of God’s love.

You see, it does not matter how much we love someone or how much they love us, there is no way to compare that love to the love that Christ has for us all. There is a line in the song that says, “Indescribable, uncontainable you see the depths of our hearts and you love us the same, you are amazing God.

That is exactly what God is, amazing. Do you know anyone on this earth who has or is willing to be beaten, spat on and condemned FOR their accusers? This is precisely what Christ did for us. He took on the sins of the entire world to afford us freedom through His blood.

His love for us runs so deeply that He sees us when we fall; AND yet when we purposely falter,  He still loves us the same. In my opinion that is amazing. I’m reminded of another worship song entitled, “Lord I lift your name on high.” The chorus says, “You came from heaven to earth, to show the way, from the earth to the cross my debt you paid, from the cross to the grave, from the grave to the sky, Lord I lift your name on high.”  

Not only did He descend from His thrown, but also came and gave His life for our lives. In return He only asks that we lift Him up in all the earth, share the wonder of His story, and live for Him every day. That is not much to be asked from someone whose love is so deep for us that in spite of the evil that often lies in our hearts, He loves us the same. He is AMAZING and His love…it goes deep.

Think about it!
