Marveling at His Amazing Love

AMAZING LOVE...
"Who can estimate the value of God's gift, when He gave to the world His only begotten Son! It is something unspeakable and incomprehensible. It passes man's understanding. Two things there are which man has no arithmetic to reckon, and no line to measure. One of these things is the extent of that man's loss who loses his own soul. The other is the extent of God's gift when He gave Christ to sinners...sin must indeed be exceeding sinful, when the Father gives His only Son to be the sinner's Friend!" ~J.C. Ryle
(video containing song, Amazing Love sung by Newsboys)
"Even if we do not consciously disregard the Lord, failing to marvel at the Father's grace---because we hear of it every week---is a subtle and powerful form of contempt. Take time to meditate on the greatness of our God and His love for us." (R.C. Sproul, Tabletalk,6/20/2008)
