Introduction

Good morning, dear brothers and sisters in Christ. You know, there's something about the love of our Heavenly Father that leaves us in awe, isn't there? It's like standing on the edge of the Grand Canyon, gazing into the vast chasm, and realizing that it's just a tiny glimpse of His love for us. That's what we're going to talk about today: the Fathomless Father's Love.

And then, we're going to talk about the fruitfulness of the Indescribable Gift. Imagine, if you will, a tree so laden with fruit that its branches bow under the weight. That's us, friends, when we accept the indescribable gift of God's grace. We become so full of His love and mercy that it spills over into every aspect of our lives.

Finally, we'll talk about faith in the inexplicable. Sometimes, God works in ways that we just can't understand. But that's okay. We don't need to understand. We just need to have faith.

As we prepare to delve into these topics, let's remember the words of the great Christian author John Stott, who said, "Faith is a reasoning trust, a trust which reckons thoughtfully and confidently upon the trustworthiness of God."

Let's read together now from 2 Corinthians 9:16: "Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!"

Let us pray. Dear Heavenly Father, as we gather here today to learn more about Your fathomless love, Your indescribable gift, and the faith we need to trust in Your inexplicable ways, we ask that You open our hearts and minds. Help us to understand Your Word and apply it in our lives. We ask this in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ. Amen.

Fathomless Father's Love

The love of our Heavenly Father is like an ocean, vast and deep. It's so wide, so deep, that we can't see the end of it. We can't even begin to comprehend its full extent. It's a love that surpasses all understanding, a love that is beyond our human comprehension. This love is not like the love we experience in our human relationships. It's not conditional or dependent on our actions. It's not a love that can be earned or lost.

The first aspect of this love that we need to understand is its unconditionalality. God's love for us is not based on who we are or what we do. It's not based on our performance or our worthiness. It's based solely on who He is. God is love, and His love for us is a reflection of His character, not our actions.

Next is its constancy. God's love for us never changes. It's not like the love of people, which can fluctuate based on feelings or circumstances. God's love is constant and unchanging. It's the same yesterday, today, and forever.

Following then is its depth. God's love for us is so deep that it reaches to the very depths of our being. It's a love that knows us intimately, that sees our deepest needs and longings, and that meets us right where we are.

The fourth aspect of this love is its breadth. God's love for us is so wide that it encompasses all of humanity. He is not limited by race, nationality, or social status, but makes it available to all who will accept it. The Scripture tells us in 2 Corinthians 9:16, "Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift!" This gift is the love of God, a love that is so vast, so deep, so constant, and so wide that it is truly indescribable.

We don’t deserve any of this. Not one iota. This love is not something that we can earn or deserve. It's not something that we can work for or achieve. It's a gift, freely given by God to all who will accept it. It’s impossible to even truly comprehend with our human minds the love of God. It's not something that we can fully understand or explain. It's a love that surpasses all understanding, a love that is beyond our human comprehension.

With that being said, this love is not something that we can keep to ourselves. It's a love that is meant to be shared, a love that is meant to overflow from our lives and touch the lives of those around us. This is the love of our Heavenly Father, a love that is fathomless, indescribable, and beyond our comprehension. It was meant to be shared with others. It's a love that is the foundation of our faith and the source of our strength.

Transition. This is the love of our Heavenly Father, a love that is fathomless and indescribable. It's a love that we can't fully understand or explain, but it's a love that we can experience and share with others. It's a love that is the greatest gift we could ever receive. So let us live in this love, let us share this love, and let us give thanks for this indescribable gift.
