"..whom having not seen you love. Though now you do not see Him, yet believing, you rejoice with joy inexpressible and full of glory." I Peter 1:8
Isn't that something?
You love Jesus even though you have never seen Him physically.
This is far more than "admiration"; an emotional thing such as one might feel for someone whose accomplishments or achievements have earned him a "good name" or reputation.
One's love for Jesus is so much more!
It is a love that defies human explanation; the kind of deep devotion resulting in a willingness to be TOTALLY COMMITTED precisely as Peter whose love for Jesus was manifested with inexpressible joy.
Perhaps a comparable way we can express this love in human terms is to compare it with the marriage vow to love "Until death do us part".
Marvelously and wondrously,as the BRIDE OF CHRIST, our love for Him is for ETERNITY..........inexpressible and full of glory!!
