I have found the paradox, that if you love until it hurts, there can be no more hurt, only more love.
When each of our four children were born I remember falling in love with them so deeply and immediately that my heart actually ached. Even though I knew it was impossible, I wanted no harm to come to them, no pain, no sorrow.
I don’t think there is anyway I could love my children more, but I have to remember the love I have for them is just a fraction of how very much God loves each of us as His children, “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only son...”
It’s a mystery how we can love someone and still have room in our hearts for more love but that’s what seems to happen to me when I give my life to Him. God continually fills my heart with His love and has brought the kids at Nice View Academy, Eldama Ravine, and Mercy Child into my life so I may also show His love to them.
