Infinite love. What does that mean? It means a never ending love. A love that is so vast we will never ever see the end of it. There is so much love, how can we fit it all into our hearts?
In the natural it seems impossible. But how about in the spiritual? Is it possible?
It sure is. There is one man who has enough love in his heart for every single person here on earth, and in heaven. Our Lord Jesus Christ. That’s right, He has infinite love, un-ending love, a love that fills His heart. A love that flows from His heart forever.
“But God proves His own love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us!”
Romans 5:8 HCSB
Jesus has so much love for each and every one of us, that He was scorned and mocked for us. He was tortured and nailed to the cross because of His love for us.
It is hard for us to comprehend such love in the natural. But through God’s Holy Spirit He teaches us and gives us understanding to know in our hearts the love Jesus has.
Will we ever have that much love in our hearts? Enough to cover the whole world? Probably not. But with the help of the Holy Spirit we can try to love one another the way Jesus loves us.
“For this reason I kneel before the Father from whom every family in heaven and on earth is named. I pray that He may grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with power in the inner man through His Spirit, and that the Messiah may dwell in your hearts through faith. I pray that you, being rooted and firmly established in love, may be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the length and width, height and depth of God’s love, and to know the Messiah’s love that surpasses knowledge, so you may be filled with all the fullness of God.”
Ephesians 3:14-19 HCSB
Will we ever comprehend totally the “Infinite Love” of God? I’d like to think so. I certainly hope so. It may not always be as clear as a sunny day, but I want to definitely always feel it in my spirit.
I can almost name the amount of times I have felt and seen that kind of love Jesus has for me, and my family. I have experienced it first hand. He has saved me from devastating illness. He brought my husband back from very near death, and performed a medically documented miracle on him.
Those times certainly confirmed the infinite love Jesus has on us. You can never ever forget what it felt like. At least I pray we would never forget.
Faithful readers, I pray these words inspire you to seek God’s infinite love. Yearn in your hearts to feel it, and see it. Because He truly does have enough love for every person in heaven and earth. He has your name written down and stamped in His love.
