The Miracle Of His
Love
And hope maketh not
ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost
which is given unto us (Romans 5:5).
Each time I think and meditate on God’s
Word and contemplate the greatness of the Lord, I’m awed to realize that He
actually put it in the heart of man, His own creature, to love Him. It’s an
amazing miracle. I don’t know if you’ve ever thought about the fact that He
made you.
You know, it’s easy for us to relate
with Him without immediately realizing that the One we’re dealing with actually
made us: everything we are, and knows everything about us. His greatness is
beyond description.
It’s therefore too humbling, and
boggles the mind to think that He’d put in our hearts to follow after Him and
love Him. To think that He made it possible for us to know Him, and want to
know more about Him, as part of His work in us, is such an amazing reality.
When you think of those who don’t know
Him, think how fortunate you are that you know Him, not because you found out
about Him, but because He put it in your heart to know Him. Best of all is,
He’s now made you His partner in winning the lost.
He could get them to know Him without
involving you, because He’s God; He’s all-powerful and can do all things.
However, He chose to make us a part of His business of bringing others to
salvation; what a miracle! What an honour!
Prayer
Dear Father, how happy I am to know
that you not only love me with an everlasting love, but also put it in my heart
to love you, my Lord and maker. My heart is bowed in worship, for your greatness,
and for the honour and privilege to know, love, and serve you. I’ll celebrate
and sing of your greatness and love all of my days, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
