boundless LOVE

God takes me to my limits to reveal His love.

Have you ever felt so afraid, after doing something atrocious, that you feel that the person you have offended has all the right to never again speak to you or even forgive you? Have you been so afraid that this might happen, that you either pretend like it never happened, you avoid the person you have offended, or you simply do not bother speaking to them? Has your fear bound you and left you feeling isolated and hopeless? Have you ever felt this way when you sin against God?
I admit to this being my status many times before God many times. However, He, in His grace and mercy, has not only delt with me in love to change this status in my life to joy, peace, and growth, but has not smitten me. Remember, God is slow to anger. I recall the many times I have certainly gone mad and ended up reaching my limits... the ultimate sin, yet, God has always been there. He is always there, before I even get to that state. God tells us in *** that He is going to be there, yes, in our future, wherever we go. I can testify He is there, and He will change you in His love. God always speaks to me in His word, in His love, and He allows and makes my heart draw back to Him. I testify that God takes me to my limits to reveal His love to me. His unfailing, unconditional love. God also tells us in 1 John 4:18 that perfect love casts out all fear, because fear has to do with punishment. So this makes me consider, like I heard in a radio broadcast, I should not fear God to punish me, for God sent His only Son Jesus to die cruxified so that my punishment be upon Him and not me. God is not going to punish us, but God will discipline us. It is like God tells us in His word, in Hebrews 12:5, He disciplines who He loves and considers His son/daughter. So, go, go before the One who already took your punishment and confess your sin and allow Him to mold you in His love. Trust.
