The Incredible Boy

My grandson came to see me this evening and I held him for a long time. He is incredible.  I knew the moment my son told me that he and his wife were going to have a baby that I would love this child, but I didn't know how much my heart would truly be captured.  He stirs all kinds of emotions within me, deep within my belly, and my heart. When I hold him, I want to smile and cry at the same time, there is peace and there is churning. I see my son, his father, and it brings back a deep and tender fondness.  I see his mother in him too, and I'm curious about what she was like as a child.
My grandson is incredible, he really is. I am completely in love with him. God has blessed us with another beautiful child in our family and I think it is amazing. His parents are doing a beautiful job, he is so loved.
When I feel all this for him, I am taken by the thought that God's love for me is so much deeper, wider, and bigger than the love I have for my grandson or my children.  God's love for me is beyond my measure  or beyond anything I could ever imagine. It is incredible, indeed!
Say That Again, Lord God, Your love for me, is beyond what I can imagine or measure, it is incredible!
