God’s love is a rushing waterfall.
Steadfast cleansing refreshing
Carrying life onward and forever
Unstoppable.
God’s love is like downy snow.
Effervescent, emanating light
holy pure ever-fresh
Endless design and delight.
God’s love is a daffodil.
Announcing life after winter’s cold death.
Undaunted by nipping winds or packed earth.
The dawning season heralded with golden glory.
God’s love is like the rising sun.
Faithful radiance, new every morning
Strokes and hues of amber shades never seen before.
God’s love is fierce and fiery as the mother tiger.
Jealous ferocious courageous
Untamed passion
Throwing herself between the enemy and her family
Protecting her young from harm
with her very life.
God’s love is Jesus.
God’s love brought pain to His heart.
Where the Rose
became a thorn
that pierced His own head.
Heaven’s Perfection
absorbed sin’s shadow
Paying the price
for the sinners He loved.
God’s love is like that.
Like no other.
A question for you, dear readers… How do you describe God’s love?
This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. ~1 John 3:16
