Ephesians 3:17-19
17 Then Christ will make his home in your hearts as you trust in him. Your roots will grow down into God’s love and keep you strong. 18 And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. 19 May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8
4 Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud 5 or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. 6 It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. 7 Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
8 Prophecy and speaking in unknown languages[a] and special knowledge will become useless. But love will last forever!
Chrisitanity is so great and special because God himself (who is love) comes to live in each one of our hearts. Love can be found in a person. You can have a relationship with somebody (a human) who will be by your side to help you find your way up and over obstacles in life. Meanwhile, true love can, and always will be found in one being, and that's God who can do "all of the above." It's so overwhelming to know that God's love is so great for me, along with you!
God's love is a supernatural form of love...it's almost beyond the imagination. It keeps coming no matter what we do (it doesn't even matter what our past has been like). Under no circumstances, will God cut off his circulation of love to you. You've heard the saying, "There are no strings attached." This can definitely be applied by God's love...it's a promise!!! There is no vow or contract with God per say, although he would like you to do everything in his glory.
"For humans, [love] is more of an earthly passion, while for God it's an overall joy...without bonds!" Thanks to my friend Christina for this idea!
