Unconditional Love

While I was ..uh.. wasting my time on facebook today, I came across a video. I'm sure this is going around the internet like wildfire, as it is a wonderful video and shows the best of humanity.
Here it is

Pretty amazing huh?

A comment was made about this being a picture of unconditional love. No doubt there is love, and he never made the commitment of marriage yet and he is still sticking by her. We don't see enough of that in today's society.

What I first felt while seeing and reading some comments was- "but do you know who loves you unconditionally all day every day since before you were born?"
I feel sad that our Lord, our Creator, the very One that gives us breath, is basically forgotten. I love seeing and hearing amazing stories like in the video above, but I so wish people would come to know the Love surpasses all understanding. If we knew what that kind of love was.. we would never search for it in people, food, money, addictions, etc. If we always ran with open arms to the One whose arms are always open for us-we wouldn't feel that hurt in disappointment that we feel when everything else around us fails.

Another song just popped in my head.. which is JJ Heller's What Love Really Means.
He loves us with an everlasting love -nothing can compare. He created us, He loves us each all, equally, despite our sin, not for what we've done, or what we will become-that is unconditional love.
