NO GREATER LOVE

NO GREATER LOVE

“The Love of Jesus” is an impossible tome to complete,
Where do we begin to describe a Love so replete?
He came to tell people about the great Love of God,
But He must Himself live out that truth in full accord.

The multitudes did not understand His divine message,
They saw nothing more than a Man in common visage.
They saw the miracles that He performed,
But seeing miracles could not their souls reform.

Jesus showed the Father’s Love through deep compassion,
He reached out and preached the Gospel with great passion.
But still they could not fully comprehend
Their hearts were closed, they did not understand.

There was one more option left to explore,
But that path would lead to pain and more.
Jesus knew that He had to choose that painful path to take,
He would show “no greater love” that a man could undertake.

Jesus was prepared to pay the ultimate cost,
He was prepared to die for those who were lost.
In the Love of Jesus we clearly see,
The Love of God that stretches to eternity.
John 15:13
