How deep the Father's love

The Embrace of a Father does not compare to any other feeling in the world, sometimes its used for pure comfort, other times for protection from the world outside, but regardless it is always covered in love. Something that most people have felt is the wonderful amazing feeling of being held in the arms of your dad when were are a little kid. You know that there is nothing in the world that can take you from his arms because he is your superman, He is the guy who can do anything and take on anyone. I have heard this many a times that my father would lay down his life for me, that he would sacrifice his very life to save mine. That is something big to think about. Thrusting himself in front of me when the car is crossing the road, or literally taking the bullet for me, these images are so deep that it does not seem to make sense why they would do this for us. This is because of Love. "Greater Love has no man than this, that he lay down his life for his brother." This makes what our other Father in heaven did for us such a more realistic and deep display of love. He literally showed us love to the highest degree, so that we would know on a human level how deep, wide, and high, his love is for us. "but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Rom 5:8. It is not the fact that God died, but the fact that he came and sacrificed everything for us so that while we were still marred and blemished we were given that second chance, we did not have to clean ourselves off. There is this Bible verse which I absolutely love and it goes like this. " For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God is Christ Jesus our Lord." Rom 8:38-39 God here is not ever going to let go of his beloved. There is nothing in the world that is going to come between him and his love to for his people. God is not going to let us suffer in the world and live in misery because he has come to give us the abundant  life. Therefore stand firm in the Lord. And know that the Father gives to his children who ask. So let the embracing arms of God overwhelm you tonight. Be known by God and begin to know him. Be a human-"being" find your identity in God.
