A Glimpse of His Love

All the love of God that we can ever possibly see... it all adds up to just a glimpse of Him. Just a mere glimpse of the amount of love He has. The love that He IS. If we could truely see God with our own physical eyes it would kill us... because he is soooo loving, and in comparison with Him... well there just isn't any comparison at all. He is good, and we are not. Compared to each other, some of us are good and some of us are not. But compared to God... none of us is even good at all! Not even the best person you know!

 Sometimes we try so hard and we get so down on ourselves for not meeting our own expectations for ourselves. We may want to be so much better than we are. We may see other people as meeting those same expectations and yet we keep failing miserably at them. Then sometimes we think of God as looking sternly down at us disappointed, while smiling at others. But then if we get a glimpse of Him... just a glimpse, of His love for us... our whole perspective can change! We just need to get to know Him better to get that glimpse... in the bible. The bible is His love letter to us and encourages us. Just a glimpse of Him and His tremendous, true, & merciful love for us and our spirits are lifted and we are new people!

 Sometimes all we can see are the failures we make. But if we would turn our eyes to His merciful love, we'd be amazed how much good that can do! Just a mere glimpse of His true love for us and we are more than rescued. We aren't just rescued and then left alone again. We are in a relationship. He is our helper. Jesus sent His Holy Spirit to be our helper. We are rescued with just a glimpse of the depth of that love. That love that rescues us so mightily is just a glimpse of what we will see and experience in heaven.

So hold on.. and look for that glimpse of Him. He is our hope.. and our peace.
