With An Incredible Love, God Embraced Us!

In a message on God's Love, my friend-in-the-Lord, Dr. Harold Graves, Jr., President of Nazarene Bible College in Colorado Springs, Colorado, wept as he read from Ephesians, chapter 2, in the Message Paraphrase of The Holy Bible:

It wasn't so long ago that you were mired in that old stagnant life of sin. You let the world, which doesn't know the first thing about living, tell you how to live. You filled your lungs with polluted unbelief, and then exhaled disobedience. We all did it, all of us doing what we felt like doing, when we felt like doing it, all of us in the same boat. It's a wonder God didn't lose his temper and do away with the whole lot of us. Instead, immense in mercy and with an incredible love, He embraced us.
-- Ephesians 2:1-5 (The Message)

For there is nothing you can do that will make God love you more,
But there is also nothing you can do
that will make God love you less.
He loves you because He loves you.” -Graham Cooke
