Wow - God's love for me is extremely large in size, large in quantity, goes for all time, goes the distance, is significant and important, is chief and principal, is powerful, is grand, and is enthusiastic.

Know therefore that the Lord Your God is God; He is the faithful God, keeping His covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love Him and keep His commands.

If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them, then the Lord your God will keep His covenant of love with you, as He swore to your forefathers.  He will lvoe you and bless you and increase your numbers.  He will bless the fruit of your womb, the crops of your land - your grain, new wine and oil - the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks in the land that He swore to your forefathers to give to you.

What a powerful reminder of God's Great Love for us!
Thank you for sharing. Will have to post an experience I had when God truly revealed His love for even me. Will try to do so in the next couple of day. Thank you for much for the reminder. Barb
