He just doesn’t stop… no matter what we do, what powers may be against us, no matter how much we worry or want to control the outcome… He just doesn’t stop. He can’t stop.
NOTHING will ever be able to separate us from the love of God! It’s all right here in the scripture: Romans 8
This morning on the way to work I was hit smack across the head, figuratively, with the lyrics of the song “How He Loves” as performed by the David Crowder Band. I have linked it up below for you to listen to, or read the lyrics.
The words, a powerfully drawn picture of His extreme love for us… my prayer is that you are encouraged today by this.

“How He Loves”
(originally by John Mark McMillan)
Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
Bending beneath the weight of His wind and mercy.
When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I realize just how beautiful You are,
And how great Your affections are for me.
And oh, how He loves us, oh,
Oh, how He loves us,
How He loves us all
He is jealous for me,
Loves like a hurricane, I am a tree,
Bending beneath the weight of His wind and mercy.
When all of a sudden,
I am unaware of these afflictions eclipsed by glory,
And I realise just how beautiful You are,
And how great Your affections are for me.
And oh, how He loves us, oh,
Oh, how He loves us,
How He loves us all
Yeah, He loves us,
Oh, how He loves us,
Oh, how He loves us,
Oh, how He loves.
And we are His portion and He is our prize,
Drawn to redemption by the grace in His eyes,
If his grace is an ocean, we’re all sinking.
And Heaven meets earth like an unforeseen kiss,
And my heart turns violently inside of my chest,
I don’t have time to maintain these regrets,
When I think about the way…
He loves us,
Oh, how He loves us,
Oh, how He loves us,
Oh, how He loves.
Yeah, He loves us,
Oh, how He loves us,
Oh, how He loves us,
Oh, how He loves.
Yeah, He loves us,
Oh, how He loves us…
Oh, how He loves us…
Oh, how He loves us.
