We, humans, often wait for the right man/woman to come into our lives and we really get excited when that perfect time comes. Right? I believe it's natural! But, when we think that the waiting takes so long, we tend to be impatient and replace that waiting to Love-seeking. But.. don't you know that there's Someone up there who's always been waiting for you all this time, to let you know that He loves you with an unending love? By studying the Bible, we can understand the height, depth, width, and breadth of God’s love for us.
1. God’s love is everlasting.
“I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving-kindness.” Jeremiah 31:3
Falling in love is very common to people nowadays. We all hope for a love that lasts forever. But true love that lasts can only be found in God. Because He is an omnipotent and everlasting God, His love for His children, including YOU, is everlasting! The God that holds the universe is also holding YOUR heart. Isn't it chilling to the bones?
2. God’s love is for sinners.
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8
How amazing would that be! The holy and just God loves the unholy and sinful people. It is indeed the best sacrifice ever made in the history of the world, that a God that loves YOU so much would do everything, even 'dying on the cross' to give YOU life.
3. God’s love is great.
How great is the love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what is we are. 1 John 3:1
Tragically, many have grown up in families where one child was shown more love than the others. The not-so favored child may have felt some degree of love—just not as much as the other children. God’s family is not like that. His love is not great toward some and barely existent toward others. Rather, His love has been richly lavished on all His children.

God is a fair God. He doesn't show favoritism. He love YOU, me, them, fairly.
4. God’s love is constant.
35Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? . . . 37No . . . 38For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, 39neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God . . . Romans 8:35,37-39
God also promises in the book of Isaiah that," I have engraved you in the palm of my hands." See? See how God is so longing for YOU to be His child. He doesn't allow anything or anyone to snatch YOU out from His hands.
So that's how God loves YOU so much! His love differs greatly with our love. No one and nothing on earth nor in the heavens could fathom the LOVE God has for YOU. God's love makes us feel so special and valuable in His eyes, that He won't allow 'someone' to break our hearts because it is very precious for Him.
Since you have already found forever in God's love, you, yes you the one reading this, is the apple of God's eyes.
May you have been blessed by this article. Thank you for reading.
