God's Incredible
Love!
"To know the love of Christ
which passes knowledge."
Ephesians 3: 19
Mary Dagworthy James began teaching Sunday
school at thirteen and later became a prominent
figure in the Wesleyan Holiness movement. She
wrote the famous Gospel song, “All for Jesus,”
and many other
hymns.
One of her songs, “Everlasting Love,”
has
been forgotten, but provides rich
imagery for visualizing God’s love.
Mary wrote:
Wondrous words! Rich in blessing!
Deeper than the unfathomed sea;
Broader than its world of waters,
Boundless , infinite and free;
Higher than the heavens above,
Is that everlasting love!
Love begins with God; God is love. He loves
us with agape love, not because of
anything
we have done, but because of who He is. It’s
a wondrous love, rich in blessing, and deeper
than the sea, broader than the waters, and
higher than the heavens.
That is His incredible love for you!
Embrace it fully, and rejoice today!
"All for Jesus! All for Jesus!
All my being’s ransomed pow’rs,
all my thoughts and words and
doings, all my days and all my
hours."
Mary Dagworthy James
