If God is limitless in nature, this means that everything about Him is limitless and this includes His love. Through the prophet Jeremiah, God breathed these passionate, poetic words: “I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you.” I want you to understand that there is no limit to the love of God. His love is everlasting. His love is limitless. And with His limitless love, He decided to love me. Not only does He love me but He loves you too.

By telling the young man to sell his possessions, give to the poor and follow Him, Jesus was making Him aware of his limitations. This turned out to be hard for him but what the young man didn’t know is that He who is limitless was standing before Him. His heart was tied to his wealth but he wanted to be perfect, he wanted to be mature. I want you to know that becoming mature is not easy, but the level of difficulty is determined by the posture and position of our hearts. I believe that the key to our maturity as believers is becoming aware of our own limitations and the limitlessness of God. The sooner we understand this, the better off we will be, the further we can go, the freer we become.
