Love of the Old-Rugged Cross

Seeking His love this morning, I'm feeling spell-bound. I want to be rooted and grounded in His love. I long to comprehend the width, length, depth and height...to know the love of Christ.

His love is wider than the center crossbar of the old-rugged cross where His hands were nailed...longer than the upright crossbar where His body was offered. His love is deeper than the depth of which it was placed in the ground on the day it was raised up...is higher even than the top of the cross reaching toward heaven. His love flows even further than the blood that flowed for us...from the old-rugged cross.

His love passes all understanding. Oh, Lord, fill us with the fullness of God!
I love you, Lord, because you first loved us! I am humbled by your sacrifice...my head bows in overwhelming gratitude this morning because Your love just amazes me.

(Ephesians 3:14-20; I John 4:19)
