God is love, and his love is a God-sized-love

"God is love, and his love is a God-sized-love. We can't compare his love to our love. His love is cosmic sized. His love is big, no bigger, no it's BIGGER. It's bigger than we can even comprehend. It's bigger than our own definition of love. It's a completely divine love.

It's a love with no faults and no limitations. It's a love that never fails. It's a perfect love. It's beyond our own definition of love. We only see a glimpse of it. A tiny piece of its whole, but what we see blows our minds.

What we see inspires us to love likewise. What we see is just a fraction of the whole, and the whole of God's love is BIG. BIGGER. Keep going.... its bigness never ends. It's like the universe: Unending, ever expanding, and undefinable".

"Although I can't possible fully understand how great a privilege it truly is, I'm blessed beyond measure to know that God is holding me within his cosmic-sized love." Mick Mooney
"And our God has more than enough love and Grace for ALL who are hurt and confused about WHO they are in this life".
It is good to meditate on the love of God that is unending and limitless. Yes, like the universe that is infinite and yet ever expanding, so is the expansive yet inclusive love of God. NASA describes the universe as infinite in extent.
"If the density of the universe exactly equals the critical density, then the geometry of the universe is flat like a sheet of paper, and infinite in extent."

Someone commented in this website that "Incidentally, if the universe is infinite now it has always been infinite, even at the Big Bang. This is why you'll often hear it said that the Big Bang wasn't a point, it was something that happened everywhere."

I think this may align with the panentheistic view of "All is in God", as we are all included in God, including the universe with all the stars and planets and living beings such as ourselves. It is reassuring then to know we are included and safely held within God's cosmic-sized love, as Mick Mooney put it in his quote. 

Yes, our God has more than enough love and Grace for ALL who are hurt and confused about WHO they are in this life. Whenever we are being rejected or sidelined by the society that try to make us conform to their norms and expectations to become something we are not, we can take refuge in the knowledge that God always loves us and accepts us for who we really are - beloved sons and daughters of God. 
Young's Literal Translation (YLT) 1 Peter 5:10
10 And the God of all grace, who did call you to His age-during glory in Christ Jesus, having suffered a little, Himself make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle [you];

Yes the God of all grace will perfect us with his/her love that casts out fear, and establish and strengthen and settle us in the knowledge of our true divine identity. It is good for our heart to be established by grace.

Nowhere to go but the heart. - Rumi


Yes, we have nowhere to go except return to the heart. The only journey is our journey within. 

"The only journey is the journey within." ~ Rainer Maria Rilke

“Meditation increases your vitality and strengthens your intelligence; your beauty is enhanced; your mental clarity and health improve. You acquire the patience and fortitude to face any problem in life. So, meditate! Only through meditation will you find the treasure you are seeking.” — Mata Amritanandamayi ("Amma")
I agree with the quote on meditation too. Meditation is indeed beneficial for our mind, intellect and soul as it stabilises and refreshes us from within. I am learning to live and breathe mindfully whenever I remember to.

The more we meditate on our true divine identity, the more we are transformed into the same image from glory to glory, from beauty to beauty, from one level of brilliance to another level of brilliance. Our beauty is enhanced, our strength and wisdom is restored, and our youth is renewed like the eagle's, much like what the quote above says. As we wait upon the Lord and behold the beauty of our true self, we shall mount up with wings and soar like eagles, we shall run and not be weary, we shall walk and not faint, and we shall dance the divine dance to the rhythm of love.
