It is only very late the majority of people realize the pervading presence of God in every moment of human life. St.Augustine cries thus: "Oh God, how late I am to know you". The caress of mother and the advice of father won't last long. But the love of God will never Desert us. The Gospel says: "My love shall not set. My words shall not pass".
St.Paul says that man is born in sin. Being cut off from God's love, his state then is like that of a plant cut off from his root. God was re-connecting His link with the mankind through the crucifixion and resurrection of His Son. What a magnificent love He has exhibited towards us?
We are known as the Children of God. That is a privilege God has granted to us. He has called us to the freedom of His children. There is no limit to a mother's love towards her child. But the child might not have understood that love in its real depth. God's love too is like this. But it is much higher and higher than a mother's love. Much deeper and deeper and vaster and vaster. It is under His protection that we breather; we see things, we sleep, we hear the sounds of this world, we wake up, we think and we taste. God is that power which protects us with a love more stronger that we ourselves love and protect our life. God loves mankind without any condition or discrimination.
