Worship for Today: God's astonishing love for man!

The Lord is awe-inspiring, fearsome, fascinating, intriguing,
majestic, and full of splendor: breathtaking! Here is what I saw of
him in Psalm 86:12-13,

"I will praise you, O Lord my God, with all my heart; I will glorify
your name forever. For great is your love toward me; you have
delivered me from the depths of the grave."

How astonishing is the love of God for mankind! He so loved the world
that he sent his Son to die a miserable death on that cross! In Psalm
8:3-4 David asks the burning question, "When I consider your heavens,
the work of your fingers, the moon and the stars, which you have set
in place, what is man that you are mindful of him, the son of man that
you care for him?" This love of God for man is inexplicable! Yet, how
wonderful it is! How wonderful is this love of God he has lavished on
us that he has made a way for us to become his children. The
resurrection of life is available to all - simply by faith in him!

What else could God have done to express this wonderful love of his for us?!

Anything of the Lord capture your heart from Scripture today? Share
your thoughts of worship with us from your Bible reading today. We'd
love to hear from you!
