How Can One Love So Much

I just read my wife's last post and I have to say that I have never seen anyone with so much love. She doesn't have to say she loves the child that is growing inside of her, I can see it in her eyes. every time she feels the baby move or kick she gets this sparkle in her eyes that says "I love this little one".

I cannot help but compare the joy of pregnancy to our relationship with God. We might get a glimpse of God through an ultrasound of Him through His word. We may never see God in His whole glorious form (until heaven at least, but we can feel Him move and kick us when we need it.

I think God wants us to love Him as if we will see Him one day soon. Just like Renee lives with the expectation that she will see the little one that is inside of her we too need to live with the expectation that we will see Jesus. We should have that same kind of love for Him as a new mother has for her child.
