In God’s Care March 5, 2014 The hardness of God is kinder than the softness of men, and his compulsion is our liberation. ~~C. S. Lewis One reason it’s so hard for us to love others as God loves us is that we have no standard in our own experience to go by. The closest thing to a human satandard is the ideal love of a parent for a child. God’s love exceeds that. The kind of love that God offers us is beyond our comprehension. It is unconditional. We know this because of the innumerable times we have betrayed God, gone back on our own word, and cursed God–only to be welcomed back whenever we’re ready, and to find ourselves blessed and comforted. Someone said, “God has to love us; it’s His job.” Our program has taught us our “job” is to love others unconditionally too, We don’t have to understand God’s love; it’s impossible. But if we are to find peace, we do have to try our best to imitate it. Today I will try my best to love others unconditionally, as God does.
