Everlasting. Forever. Boundless. Undying. Endless. Some words that describe God's love for us. Jeremiah says that "in a far off land" the LORD will show Himself to them (us). While we are far off...away from Him, He still chooses to love us. Not just with an ordinary caring...but an unceasing allegiance to us. This isn't puppy love, or an infatuation that will diminish as soon as someone else comes along. Rather, a deep, abiding devotion. And it isn't in word alone. He goes on to say, that because of that love, this is why He has continued to be faithful to us. Faithful to us...not us to Him! It doesn't say only if you are faithful to Me, will I be faithful to you. No conditions are present. He is faithful to us because He loves us. Period.
In the times that it feels as if God is far away, and His Love is distant. Remember those words. Though we may be going through an extremely difficult situation, God is there. He is there in the distant, calling. Letting you know that He does love you with a Love that will never end...and you can be sure He will never leave.
