Too much love will kill you…
Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It’ll drain the power that’s in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won’t understand why
You’d give your life, you’d sell your soul
Too much love will kill you
In the end…
In the end.
Yes, indeed too much love will kill you. That’s what had happened to my God in a very Good Friday. O.. I wish I can love Him as much as He loves me.
Well apparently a Fredy Mercury understood this. He, with his band, Queen, expressed this in a song, Too much love will kill you. But he died not because of his love to others. He died out of aids. Crowds yelled in grief (more in here) “Please God, take Britney Spears to you and give us back Freddie !! Please !!!
”
But our Jesus understood more than a lead singer could understand. Jesus died out of His love to us all long before any person can understand what a true love means. But, such an irony, the crowd, instead of pleading for His life, they plead for Barabbas’ life (Luke 23:18 “then a mighty roar rose from the crowd, and with one voice they shouted, ‘Kill him, and release Barabbas to us!'”-The Message) The true love shown was so great that one can understand.
Ah..His love to us, I wish I can love Him as much as He loves me.
As much as I love Queen’s song, I think George Mattheson’s song will describe more on His love to us. In essence, he said that God is love. And that love just could not let Him to let us go. He just couldn’t.
O Love that wilt not let me go, I rest my weary soul in thee;
I give thee back the life I owe, That in thine ocean depths its flow
May richer, fuller be.
O Cross that liftest up my head, I dare not ask to fly from thee;
I lay in dust life’s glory dead, And from the ground there blossoms red
Life that shall endless be.
Embrace His love.
Enjoy His love.
Exalt Good Friday.
