Insane Love for Man (sunday reflections part 02)

When satan fell from God’s grace there was no rescue mission but when man fell a rescue plan was set in motion…

Genesis 3:15

The most honest of friendship and most authentic fellowship is to die for. “There is no greater love than to lay down one’s life for one’s friends.” You have “friends”. Would you die for them? This and nothing short of it is the kind of Love God desires for those who love Him and know Him. And he showed us by example.

Isaiah 49:15-16 (a mothers unending love and how it shoes us God): A mother’s unending love is irrational. Though she may need rest or her child may be rejected by the outside world, she stands by and defends, protects and loves her child. This is perhaps the closes images of God’s love we have. Interestingly, the “shekinah” God or the presense of God or the God who dwells within, is the only Hebrew word that referes to God  with a feminine tense.
