This week we are singing a song called “Reckless Love”. I am so moved over this notion of God being reckless in His love for me. While "reckless" can have negative connotations, in this context, it's used to describe a love that's so intense and unwavering that it's willing to take extraordinary risks and pay any price to save others. It's a love that doesn't calculate the consequences but simply chooses to love and pursue us even when it seems illogical or foolish to others.
The song draws inspiration from the Parable of the Lost Sheep in Luke 15, where Jesus leaves 99 sheep to find the one that is lost. This parable highlights the idea that God's love is so great that He will go to great
lengths to pursue and save even those who are lost or straying from Him.
I hope you are encouraged by God's unwavering love for you today!
