L'amour de Dieu

… Étant enracinés et fondés dans l'amour, afin que vous soyez capables de comprendre avec tous les saints quelle est la largeur et la longueur et la profondeur et la hauteur – et de connaître l'amour du Christ qui surpasse toute connaissance. Éphésiens 3. 18, 19
 

L'amour de Dieu de loin surpasse
Ce qu'un humain peut exprimer.
Ici-bas tout déçoit, tout passe,
Son amour seul ne peut changer.

Épreuve ou deuil, danger, tristesse,

Rien ne sépare jamais
Ses bien-aimés de sa tendresse,
De son amour parfait.

Amour divin, qui peut décrire

Ta plénitude et ta beauté?
Pour te chanter et pour te dire,
Il nous faudra l'éternité.

Alors enfin rendus semblables

À Jésus Christ glorieux,
Nous comprendrons l'incomparable,
Le grand amour de Dieu.

Ruth Demaurex

“Je suis assuré que ni mort, ni vie, ni anges, ni pouvoirs, ni choses présentes, ni choses à venir, ni puissances, ni hauteur, ni profondeur, ni aucune autre créature ne pourra nous séparer de l'amour de Dieu, qui est dans le Christ Jésus notre Seigneur” (Romains 8. 38, 39).

“L'amour ne périt jamais” (1 Corinthiens 13. 8).

It Is Amazing!

Let the whole earth be filled with His glory. Amen and Amen. Psalm 72:19 nkjv

We can see and enjoy the glory of God both now and forever.

In our natural state, we all fall short of it (Romans 3:23).

Jesus was the radiance of it (Hebrews 1:3), and those who knew Him saw it (John 1:14).

In the Old Testament, it filled the tabernacle (Exodus 40:34–35), and the Israelites were led by it.

And we are promised that at the end of time, heaven will shine with it in splendor so great there will be no need for the sun (Revelation 21:23).

What is the “it” in all those statements above?

"It” is the glory of God. And He is amazing!

Throughout the Bible we are told that we can enjoy glimpses of God’s magnificent glory as we dwell on this earth He has created. God’s glory is described as the external display of His being. Because we cannot see God, He gives us clear pictures of His presence and His work in things like the majesty of the universe, the greatness of our salvation, and the presence of the Holy Spirit in our lives.

Today, look for God’s glory—for the evidence of His greatness. You’ll see it in nature’s beauty, a child’s laughter, and the love of others. God still fills the earth with His glory.

Thank You, heavenly Father, for the glimpse of Your glory that we see now, for the glory that we know exists in our Savior, and for the sure hope of the full knowledge of glory that we will experience in heaven.
