Crazy Love

Nahum 1:7

 

The Lord is good, a strong hold in the day of trouble; and he knoweth them that trust in him.

 

 

There are many things which contribute to a happy life, but I hope you will agree with me, that God is the Giver of that life.  God is absolutely the greatest, most important source in your life.  Without Him, everything pales, everything loses its meaning. 

 

It's the 'Love Month'.  February.  Everyone is gearing up for that special valentine, it seems.  For reasons I will not divulge (here) I find myself, today, in awe of the awesomeness of God.  He is the best Valentine.  If I had to write my own life's story, it would certainly pale in comparison to how God is writing it!!!  He writes His love on the tables of my heart each day, and I stand in awe.  Through all the mistakes, transgression, pain, divorce, child-rearing, job-less, mending of relationships, goodbyes, hellos, employment, home-ownership,...and the list goes on.  All of it, such a God thing! 

 

It's the God-Things that keep us whistling a tune in sometimes even the darkest of days!  How great is our God!!! 

 

Psalm 92:5  O Lord, how great are thy works!  and Thy thoughts are very deep. 

 

His is not a shallow love.  His love is deep.  It seems, to me, that God shows us that He loves us via the most craziest of ways sometimes.

We have a problem.  We call on Him.  And, He fixes it in such a way that it truly passes our comprehension.  He TOTALLY takes over the show in such a way that we do not see coming.  We find proof of this in scripture.   

 

Ephesians 3:19 And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fullness of God. 

 

God shows us He loves us in the hard things....so that we might be filled with all the fullness of Him. 

 

Pain has a purpose.  God is our refuge.
