Love

Love as High

For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him.

Psalms 103:11

· · ·

The psalmist uses the immeasurable distance between heaven and earth to describe God's great love.

Just as no one can measure the distance from earth to heaven, so God's steadfast love toward those who fear Him is immeasurable. This cosmic comparison helps us grasp the magnitude of divine love—it is as high and unreachable as the heavens, yet intimately directed toward us.

When you feel insignificant, remember that God's love for you is as vast as the distance between heaven and earth.

Great God, Your love is as high as the heavens are above the earth. I am overwhelmed by such immeasurable love directed toward me. Amen.
