Have you ever considered how far God will go for us because of His love?
-Mary Heller, Precept Study Leader and President, PWOC Ft. Meade, Maryland
I recently watched an interview with Brian "Head" Welch formerly with the band Korn as he talked to Pat Robertson about giving His life to God's control. He went to a church, heard about God's love, went home to do his drugs and found that God was right there--in the moment--with him.
He does no less for me. God is with me... as I do the very thing I don't want to do. He leaves the 99 to bring home this one. He reaches into the thorn brush I'm stuck in to untangle me, taking wounds He doesn't have to take. He washes off the muck & mire I've wallowed in. He carries me home.
He does that for each of us--more than once I dare say--because of love. It's who He is. He is love. He is love that goes to all lengths to save me from what I can't save myself from. And, as He carries me home I nestle into His arms & hear His heart beat.
