Love

There's a lot to be said for love. If God is love, and He is unsearchable, just think of the endless ways that love can be displayed!
I was reading this morning in Song of Solomon 8. Verses 5-7 are really meditation worthy.

"Who is this who comes up from the wilderness leaning upon her Beloved...Set me like a seal upon your heart, like a seal upon your arm; for love is as strong as death, jealousy is as hard and cruel as Sheol. Its flashes are flashes of fire, a most vehement flame [the very flame of the Lord]! Many waters cannot quench love, neither can floods drown it. If a man would offer all the goods of his house for love, he would be utterly scorned and despised." (Amplified Bible)

I began to think, how did the Bride know she could lean on her Beloved? If his love for her is like the love described in verses 6-7, then she could fully trust in Him and lean on Him.
Isn't it great to know that God loves us this much? Deeper than we could ever know or search out.

According to Webster's Online Dictionary, vehement is defined as, "marked by forceful energy, powerful, intensely emotional and impassioned, fervid, deeply felt ;forcibly expressed."
I see "forcibly expressed" when I look at what happened at the Cross.
That's the kind of love you can count on--deeper than we can fathom.
