[faithful:love]

Your love, O Lord, reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies. Psalm 36:5

God's love doesn't stop, ever. Never. I can't escape it or leave it, it's so big He always loves me. Spatially, the heavens and the skies are a long way off - I won't ever travel through the "heavens" = space. Even if I were to go to the moon, God's love is there. Emotionally, I can feel distant from God. When I'm not still, listening to Him. When I run, run, run through life - caring for kids, family, friends, and not taking time to listen. Or just run through life to, you know, "get things done." And the whole time it seems like life is passing me by, I'm never on the edge, in the lead, setting pace, but always trying to keep up. Even then, God is faithful in love.

Are their limits to God's faithfulness? No, He is true to Himself and always true. "Even when we are faithless, He remains faithful." How about rejection? Does God ever reject us? No,

For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neighter height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 8:38-39

Nothing can separates us from God's love. Nothing, but there is one important word in the above quote - the second to last: "our." Until God is mine, I'm not His. He remains faithful, yes, but I am outside of Christ, and therefore outside of the love of God that is in Christ. God's love is seen in Christ. God's faithfulness is in Christ. In Christ, nothing separates from the love of God. Count me in.
