The Depths of His Love

I felt the Lord say to me, My love comes from the deep. All your fountains are in Me. Psalm 87:7

From the depths of Your love comes the source of my joy, my love, my perseverance in the face of great opposition.


How wide. How long. How high. How deep. I want to grasp all of this about the love of Christ. Ephesians 3:18


There is no end, no limit, no boundary for Your love. Your fountains are the source of my music that I play or sing. The source is Your boundless deep love. It is a fountain and a spring that is only found in the deep places.


In the depths of the earth we are buried. A life planted in the ground in death will spring forth with Your life; and so I die. And deep in the bowels of the earth, the place of death I find life in You, the fountain.


The boundaries of my dwelling and the appointed times are in You. Acts 17:27 You have set them in place. You don't leave me alone to navigate them. Even here in the depths, You are HERE.


Go DEEP my soul and find the Spring of Life that never runs dry.

When you die, when you die
You tap into the river
When you go lower
You find the fountain of Me
Living Waters from the depths
of sorrow and despair
from suffering and sacrifice
You discover
the Spring of Life
All my fountains are in You.
