“When you are lying in My arms, words become superfluous. I shall feel your very heart, and you shall feel Mine. When our hearts are beating as one, there is a language spoken that is sweeter than all words.” (from Tears from a Lonely God - Chapter Six: Come into My Arms.)

How could I possibly put into words what this love truly means? As it is implied, I’m unable to communicate the profound love of God in mere words. But rather, I attempt as if an archaeologist: beginning to border-out and dust off the outlines of an exquisite and grand prize.

So too do I hope to give the silhouette of God’s love, that others might be intrigued by its unsearchable and indescribable richness, and so be driven to press onward to unearth such a prize. And yet, it is not to be unearthed, but rather, unheavened. For it is the gift of God in Christ Jesus, from heaven:

“I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.” -John 6:51

And so I pray, as did the Apostle Paul so long ago, that you would find and know God’s love:

“That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all saints what is the breadth, and length, and depth, and height; And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.” -Ephesians 3:17-19
