Exceeding All Thought
1 Kings 10:7
However, I believed not the words, until I came, and my eyes had seen it: and, behold, the half was not told me…


The love of God passeth knowledge; man cannot grasp it. When Columbus landed in America, he did not know that he had discovered a vast continent. He knew nothing about its vast rivers, its great lakes and valleys. What did he know about the wealth of minerals hidden in its mountains? So it will take us all our days to discover the love of God; its depths we know nothing about. We shall need all eternity to fathom it.
