This much...

Just thought I'd share an illustration I heard a long time ago.

Imagine that you are talking to Jesus face to face. He's right there in front of you. You ask him, "Jesus, how much do you love me?" With a 3 cm gap between your thumb and index finger you say "This much?" Jesus answers "No, much more". You ask again, "This much?" with your fingers spread as wide as possible. Again Jesus answers, "No, much more". You're getting a bit impatient and you really just want to know so you ask, "Then Jesus, how much DO you love me?" Jesus looks into your eyes, stretches out His arms and says, "This much". He then bows His head and dies, hanging on a cross.

I love your blogs! It is evident that you have an incredible relationship with our Lord! Isn't He AMAZING! While I was researching the history of Iceland I found your blog. A group of 30 will be coming from Alabama to Iceland on a mission trip April 10-22. We would love to meet you. We will be holding a women's conference called "Women United" on April 12. Krossin has agreed to allow us to meet there. We too will be prayer walking, going to churches, high schools and universities. Our Master's Commission program in the USA has 10 students from Iceland. I have fallen in love with your country. We were honored to also be in Iceland last year. We are so excited to see what all God is going to do. We feel Iceland is the key to the world! May God wrap His arms of love around you and use you for His glory!!
