"God's relationship with us and our world is just that: a relationship. As with every relationship, there's a certain amount of unpredictability, and the ever present likelihood that you'll get hurt. The ultimate risk anyone ever takes is to love, for as C.S Lewis says, 'Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken. If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to on one, not even an aminal.' But God does give it, again and again and again, until he is literally bleeding from it all. God's willigness to risk is just astounding- far beyond what any of us would do were we in his position."
a small part from the book "WILD at HEART" by John Eldredge. good book, do read it :)
this small passgae really captured me when i read it just now during lunch break, its so true that God knowing we will fail Him but yet choose to love us, and to extend His grace again and again. even when we fail again, He still loves. God is love.
"thosuand times i fail, still Your mercy remains,
should i stumble again, I'm caught in Your grace"
