God's Love is INFINITE

I use to be afraid of infinity.

Something about forever and eternity made me cringe. Looking around at this abyss of blackness. Nothing to be seen in its depths except darkness-shadows and I would imagine myself falling into it. Hands of nightmares reaching out and pulling me in the tides of infinity.

Never ending world of decay.

Mania.

A vast and infinite garden of the deceased. Gloomy clouds crying out endless misery. Fitting for someone like me. Misery has always been by my side. I guess it found company with me and no sooner loneliness came along.

The three of us.
Hand in hand.

Following the black brick road.

We were the outcasts in the world of perfects. The ugly trying to blend in with the beautiful however artificial we had to become. The silent in the a world of noise, all shouting to be heard-to be trusted-to be loved.

An infinite of lies.
As far as the eye could see.

Infinite...what a scary and unwanted thing I would think. Never ending. Never stopping. Never fleeting. An eternity of companionship with misery and loneliness...that's a scary thought. The trapped soul in my shell couldn't stand it!

I wanted infinite to end.
But then my Savior came...

And turned my nightmares of infinity into hopes and dreams.
Yearning for infinity with him to come.

"For God so loved the world he gave his only begotten Son, so whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life." John 3:16.

How far and how wide God's love is for us humans-for us monsters! So far and wide as the eyes can see.

The sky's the limit but not for God!
He is infinite.

Eternal.
Never ending.

Infinity.

An abyss of love deeper than the ocean, he drowns us in. Up into the sky and beyond the limits of the galaxy. Forgiveness and mercy for the unworthy such as I. A lover that holds me so close to his chest I forget how to breath and realize just how inadequate I am compared to him. How flawed I am yet he still holds me in his arms and whispers truth in my ear.

He's a parent that gives everything to me. Spoils me rotten to the core and even then just keeps giving and giving. Takes away the pain of my wounds and kisses it softly. Fixes the brokenness that I am and makes it whole. Sews up the rips and tears of my heart and makes it new. Patiently teaches me what I need to know, what will help me be less miserable me and more like loving him. Passes wisdom to me.

His love is like a best friend after a long day and no family wants to hear me out or even talk about random things with me. Gives me advice when there is none. He's my conscious when mine is all gone. Makes me laugh when I need to smile and lets me cry my heart out when my eyes can't hold in the tears any longer.

He's the ocean.
He's the sky.

He's the vast earth
Sprinkled with flowers of every color and life of everything.

In a garden of rainbows he sets a table before me.
A tea party to welcome me home.

In presence of all my family.
My siblings in Christ.

That is his love.
God's love...

Is INFINITE.
