I am an infinitesimally tiny speck in an infinitely large universe, and yet I am loved, completely and unconditionally. You are, too. How cool is that?
Quite often I find myself thinking about, or rather remembering, the incredible depth of God’s love, and I am moved to tears. Anyone who hasn’t experienced this love in a deeply personal way cannot really appreciate what I am talking about. I think my own experience must be similar to that reported by those who underwent a near death experience and returned to their everyday lives changed to their very core by the love in which they were immersed during their experience. A profound experience of divine love heals mental illness by eliminating fear, including fear of death. It frees one to truly live. What a gift! Thanks be to God.
