Love Gift From The Father To The Son

In Ernie's sermon Sunday he said, "Do you realize you are a love gift from the Father to the Son? [Not that you have done anything to be this gift]..."

This morning I knelt down and really meditated on that in prayer. And I realized I know so little of God's love towards me as His child. My sin looms so large and I know how undeserving I am. I know how infinitely gracious God is towards me. But I have not thought enough about the love of God. How can I pour out love if I am not drinking in the perfect love of my perfect Father?

Lord, would you overwhelm my understanding of how deep and wide and vast your love is towards me in Christ?

How deep the Fathers love for us. How vast beyond all measure. That He should give His

only Son. To make a wretch His treasure.
