Saturday - Memorial of the Immaculate Heart of Mary (Part 1)
"How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace." (Elizabeth Barrett Browning)
Long before one of the greatest love poems was written, there was God and His amazing love for man. So, how does God love us? (Psalm 103: 1-4; 11-12)
He forgives us over and over and over again
"How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace." (Elizabeth Barrett Browning)

"He pardons all your iniquities ..."
He heals us
"He heals all your ills."
He keeps us from harm - of all forms and sizes
"He redeems your life from destruction ..."
He watches over us 24/7
"For as the heavens are high above the earth, so surpassing is His kindness toward those who fear Him. As far as the east is from the west, so far has He put our transgressions from us."
He gives us and our lives a make over
"He crowns you with kindness and compassion."
"The Love of Christ impels us ... Consequently from now on we regard no one according to the flesh ... So whoever is in Christ is a new creation: the old things have passed away; behold, new things have come." (2 Corinthians 5:14-17)
