Deep Deep Love of Jesus

[Fragrant Grace]

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

Melt in love for Jesus as you consider Him and His deep deep love for us
Never failing, perfect love
*******

O the deep, deep love of Jesus, vast, unmeasured, boundless, free!
Rolling as a mighty ocean in its fullness over me!
Underneath me, all around me, is the current of Thy love
Leading onward, leading homeward to Thy glorious rest above!


O the deep, deep love of Jesus, spread His praise from shore to shore!
How He loveth, ever loveth, changeth never, nevermore!
How He watches o’er His loved ones, died to call them all His own;
How for them He intercedeth, watcheth o’er them from the throne!


O the deep, deep love of Jesus, love of every love the best!
’Tis an ocean full of blessing, ’tis a haven giving rest!
O the deep, deep love of Jesus, ’tis a heaven of heavens to me;
And it lifts me up to glory, for it lifts me up to Thee!

S Trevor Francis - 1875 (hymn)

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends..
John 15:13

Thank you Gordon @stormomar
I pray your week is filled with the loveliness of Jesus

Yes our Lord's love is truly amazing....never ending and eternal depths to fathom

A little extract from David Harsha...Wanderings of a Pilgrim:

Contemplate . . .
His glorious character;
His infinite mercy;
His unparalleled condescension,
and His boundless love!

There is enough in Jesus to employ the soul in rapturous meditation through a vast eternity!

His excellence, His goodness, and His love—can never be fathomed!

O keep your eye fixed on this adorable Savior, while you sojourn in this valley of tears; and in a little while you shall see Him as He is; face to face, and ascribe to Him unceasing praise!

For this cause I bow my knees unto the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ,
Of whom the whole family in heaven and earth is named,
That He would grant you, according to the riches of His glory, to be strengthened with might by His Spirit in the inner man;
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.


Now unto Him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us,
Unto Him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end.
Amen.
Ephesians 3:14-21
