love

1 John 4:10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

How awesome is that?

That we have such a secure inheritance in a God who loves us so much that He came down to earth, suffered the wrath of His own justice, so that He can freely love us.

That in Christ we have everything.

That in Christ we have true liberty.

That in Christ we can love others because He first loved us.

That we have perfect love. Agape love. The i-would-lay-down-my-life-for-you kind of love.

John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends.

Would you lay down your life for any of your friends? Maybe.
Would you lay down your life for a stranger? Possibly, if he's worthy.
...Would you lay down your life for a sinner?

God did. God's love did. God's wisdom did. God's champion did. God's son did.

For you. so how much less will He give us? He gave up His everything, so how much more will He not give?

exceedingly, abundantly, above all i can ask or even think.

Lord, just blow me away.
