Love is something that God freely gives us. No matter what we do, He will never stop loving us. His love for us is unconditional, which means we could do anything in the world to defy Him and He would not love us less. Real love is something that sacrifices and sometimes it can result in the ultimate sacrifice. Life.
Recently someone I knew said their family member tried to commitment suicide and I started thinking about how that person must feel. I wondered how desperate they must be to find what they are missing. It saddened me greatly, because I knew what they were missing.
When there is a void, a unhappiness, a feeling that something is missing...that is every humans longing to be with their creator. You see God made us so without Him we feel empty and unhappy. Without a deep and meaningful relationship with Him, we find life meaningless and without joy. Only when we find our reason for existence can life actually feel content and worth living.
I know it is hard to imagine Gods love. I have struggled wrapping my mind around this concept, but I find that reading what God said about His love for us helps. The Bible says that He loved us so much that He sent His only son to die for our sins. He made us in His image, He knit us together in our mothers womb, and He knows every single hair on our heads. There is NO ONE on this planet that can say that for another person. The love that a Shepard, Master, and Creator has for His children is infinite. Not the curse of sin, the flames of hell, or the cunningness of the enemy can weaken it.
