God loves us, a lot

At Visions last night, I was reminded that God loves us--- a lot. There are no expectations here or demands that you need to meet. There is no failure or no standard that makes God not love you. "While we were still sinners, Christ died for us". God's love is amazing and we don't have to impress it, nor do we have to defend ourselves to Adonai. Instead, we are called higher by his love. It makes us better because we want to love him better and become more intimate. The Christian life is not some ever increasing adherance to a standard, it's an ever increasing intimacy with our God. Praise God, your love calls us higher!

As good a summary of the Gospel of grace and the proper response to it as I've read anywhere... Good stuff my friend...

"From the begining it was always about the Great Romance, even before [Adam ate the fruit] it was always about the Great Romance in ways you just couldn't understand." Ted Dekker

The love of God and by implication His grace are the only important things in all the universe. There is nothing else.
