If we do not understand how limitless and
unrestricted God’s love for us is then we can not assimilate it into our lives
and our thinking. If we believe God’s love has limits, that there are some
areas of life where God’s love is incapable of reaching, then we can never
fully trust Him, never fully commit ourselves to His care. For His love may
“run out”. We may go “too far”, may commit “too great” a sin so that God’s love
is not able to find us and cleanse us and rescue us, and cover over our
multitude of transgressions. But if we understand that there is no place we can
go where He cannot find us, then we can rest in His love, count on His care,
commit ourselves to His protection and submit ourselves to His guidance. If we
can fully comprehend what God is capable of doing through us because of His
great love for us, then we can truly “do all things through Christ who
strengthens us”
