How Deep The Father’s Love For Us:  Part 1
By Maiden Princess

 

“But God demonstrates His own love towards us, in that while we were sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8

 

Lately, as I have been reading through the Scripture, I am amazed at how deep and wide and long is the love of God for His children- for me!  To think that the Maker of the Universe loves me.  He held me in His hands and knit me together in my Mother’s womb.  He breathed life into me and gave me a destiny even before I was born. He created me to glorify Him and has given me the privilege to serve Him even after all I’ve done wrong.  He gives me abounding grace and never stops loving me, even when I become very unlovely.  I look at my life and say, why me? What does God see in me that He would love me enough to give His Son’s life in exchange for mine?  I am not even near the child He was.  I cannot comprehend this love He has for me.  It makes me cry, laugh, and bow down in humility all at the same time.  “And to know the love of Christ which surpasses all knowledge that you may be filled up to all the fullness of God.” Ephesians 3:19   His love surpasses what I can even comprehend…amazing!  So if you look at yourself today and think that you are alone and unloved remember that you have a God who created you, brought you into being, and loves you more than love can demonstrate.  Truly, how deep is the Father’s love for us.

 

What Have I Done by Addie Camp

What have I done, Lord Jesus, to deserve Your endless love/ What have I done, Lord Jesus, to be worthy of Your grace/ What have I done, Lord Jesus, to be standing here with You/ What have I done, Lord Jesus,  to be worthy of You/

Chorus: For I am nothing yet you love me/ I am no one yet You care/ You thought of me when You died/ What have I done to deserve this love

OOOOOOOOO….OOOOOOOOOOOO

And I lay down my will/ To do Yours until/ My life I give henceforth to live for You alone/ For I am nothing yet You love me/ I am no one yet You care/ You thought of me when You died/ What have I done to deserve this love

OOOOO….OOOO…OOOO

Repeat the first verse

You make me worthy of You/ You make me worthy of You

 

In every tree that turns color, in every ray of sun that warms my skin, in every gurgle and tumble the water takes, in the vast oceans and lakes, in the crashing waves, in the way the clouds float effortlessly across the sky, in the Cardinals and songbirds flitting here and there along there merry way, in the  green grass that sways in the breeze,  in the rain drops forming a symphony on the roof, in the bold lightning strikes across the dark sky, and the booming thunder shaking the house, in the blooming, blossoming flowers at my feet; all of this speaks of His love for me.  Each His very own sticky note in my day reminding me of His unending love.  And although I feel unworthy I embrace Him and know that I can do nothing but give my life for Him as a return token of my affection.  He is worthy of no less!

 

May God be glorified in my life and yours forevermore.
