Love’s Intensity!
Most of us would accept the general concept that God loves us but what is not often discussed is the INTENSITY of that love. Empty spaces or vacuums exist in our lives because we are deprived of love. Consider for a moment those small airtight containers you can buy in the supermarket. Have you ever…
