Through all my sin,
His love endures.
Through all my disobedience,
His love endures.
Through all my wrong decisions,
His love endures.
Through all the fallacies, I have believed,
His love endures.
It endures through all this and more.
Romans 5:20 says, “where sin abounded grace did much more abound.” 
The love of God is not only eternal, but beyond measure.
The Bible also says that God gave the law so man would know how sinful he is.
Which was why the Father sent Jesus.
Ephesians 1:4-5 says, “He hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world.” 
This means the Lord knew who would come to Christ before the earth was created.
He knew before He created the earth what grief, heartache, and sorrow man would cause Him through sin.
And the Lord created us anyway.
Through everything, His love endures.
