"Echoes of Love"

"Blessed be the LORD, because He hath heard the voice of my supplication." (Psalms 28:6) I know, it's not the best title I could come up with, but it is the one that rattled off inside of my head as I was thinking of how to describe what David might have been thinking. Our greatest bit of knowledge to hold onto is how much our Father in heaven loves us; it's not just to know that He loves us, but it's vitally important to know that He loves us with such a special kind of love, that there is no way to measure it's worth or it's distance. His love for us is the works and the operation of His hands; as a matter of fact, I am certain that He has designed everything to be for our pleasure, and for our fellowship with Him; that He and us could become one for all eternity: the Holy and the Holiest; we that have been made Holy, and He that is the Holiest of Holy! Quite simply, the harder you think about how much He loves you, the more you realize how much He loves you, and how incredibly easy we have access to His love! It was not easy for Him to provide that access for us; it was not something that did not require great sacrifice and hurt upon His heart; but it was something that He did for us, because it was the only way that He could get us back into fellowship with Him. That is what "the operation of His hands" is all about, and everyone that does not regard the magnitude of what He has done for them, they will be destroyed; not because He will have chosen them to be destroyed, because His desire is that all the world would come unto Him and receive His Love; but those that choose not to, and those that do not regard the magnitude of His great love, they have sealed their own fate by not having chosen to accept His love, which was given so freely and without restraint. This is what it's like, as we meditate upon His Love: we come to the great understanding of how incredibly easy that God has made His love available to us, and how He has answered our cries way before we have ever even thought to ask them... "O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colors, and lay thy foundations with sapphires. And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones. And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children. In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee. Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by Me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake. Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy. No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of Me, saith the LORD." (Isaiah 54:11-17)
