The love of Jesus.

The love that was expressed by Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ is tremendous. His love transcends any human comprehension that pertains to love, the love we feel for our family and friends is but a smigeon, a mere fraction of the love that Christ has for His creation. While I was still in this world sinning, Christ died for me, whilst I was displaying hate and anger toward my fellow human beings, Christ patiently waited for me so that He could forgive me. Where would we be without His patience and love? I dare not think about the darkness that would have engulfed me should I have not stepped into His brilliant light and it shone brightly upon me exposing my dreadful deeds, which ultimately brought me to repentance. How wonderful a God we have! We constantly rebel against Him and to our shame! If someone offered us a life of money, fame, love and security, wouldn't we treat that person with the utmost respect? God offers us so much more than anything we could possibly attain in this life, eternal joy, peace, love, happiness and blessings that are beyond our ability to comprehend! And yet all to often we simply exchange this wonderful gift that is literally priceless for worthless junk, materialistic possessions that will ultimately rust, break, tear or be thrown into the trash. God loves His creation to the point of death, even death upon a Cross, which was a shameful, barbaric and torturous death. But He humbled Himself and dwelt amongst His creation to serve and ultimately save us, His love is indescribable, let us rejoice in Him and store our treasures in Heaven, "where neither rust nor moth destroys". God Bless.
