So, one month of unemployment has ended. All supporting documents have been submitted, and in 2 weeks time, I have my interview with HKU. Prayers much appreciated.
Anyways, in the past 2 weeks, I've encountered the word "steadfast" numerous times, most often in the context of the "steadfast love" of God. It got me thinking about what is the exact definition of steadfast, so as always, I check one of my favourite reference sites... dictionary.com. According to dictionary.com steadfast means:
1. fixed in direction
2. firm in purpose, resolution, faith, attachment, etc
3. unwavering
This got me thinking, God's love is directly fixed on me, with the sole purpose of loving me, and it is the same yesterday, today and tomorrow. Nothing I do or do not do can change this fact about God's love for me. When it comes down to it... it's a concept of God's love that is rather hard to fathom... because we ourselves as humans are unable to love unconditionally to the same extent that God is able. I'm learning to see that at different stages of our lives, we gain a new understanding of God's love for us. Yet even through these different stages of life, by the time we leave this world to be with Him in heaven... we would still not have grasped the extent of His love for us. It is not until we leave this world to join him in heaven, that we will be given the full revelation of His love for us.
That's pretty crazy...
