T.T. 68. God’s love.

 

An old song entitled “More than yesterday” is about a girl who asks a boy “How much do you love me?” His answer is “I love you more than yesterday, but less than tomorrow.” In other words he was telling the girl that his love for her was increasing every day.

 

I wondered if God loves us in a similar way. Is His love for us growing stronger every day?

 

The answer to the question is “No”. The reason is that God already loves us to the maximum extent. He can never love us any more than He does today, or any less than He does today. God may not like some of the things we do, especially if we ignore Him or are nasty to other people, but He will still love us to the maximum because “God is love.”

 

If anyone asks “How much does God love me?” Point them to the cross.  You cannot love anyone more than giving up your life for them.
