The love of Jesus

“nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” – Romans 8:39

Johnson was a youth born with no legs. He was just living without understanding the unfailing love of God. In a Sunday service when the preacher gave a message on the everlasting love of the Lord and prayed, Johnson was touched and he dedicated himself to God. When the service was over, Johnson moved with his two hands and body and approached the pastor and told him that he intended to join the village ministry. The scheduled time for going for ministry was 3 O’clock. But he reached there at 02:30pm itself. They kept all the out-reach resources such as Bible tracts, New testaments and the Bibles in the van and then Johnson was made to sit. When they reached the village, they parked the car near a tree and brought all the resources and put them under the tree and of course Johnson was also shifted. Taking some outreach resources all the others except Johnson went in twos for preaching the gospel. When they returned after ministry, Johnson was not found there. After a long time, he crawled with his hands and came with a broad smile. When he was asked, he said, “Is it not my obligation to share how Jesus loves a sinner like me? So, I held the tracts in my mouth and went from house to house for proclaiming the immeasurable love of God. 

Understanding the love of Christ Jesus’ apostle Paul says, “I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth nor any other created thing shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.” Moreover, he says “Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.”

Beloved, have we experienced the endearing love of Jesus this much? Or when we feel feeble and in unfavourable situation do, we lament saying, “God does not love us and has forsaken and forgotten us?” Look at Johnson! Though he was legless his love for Jesus led him to do ministry. Paul also assures that we can sense God’s love under all circumstances and without getting shrunk, we can overcome everything and be victorious. Those who rejoice in the amazing love of God, cannot stay idle, but we will strive hard to share and show our love for Him to others. Let our nation get to know Jesus!
