Does God loves each of us to his best capacity?

[dominique1313]

We say “God loves each and every one of us with his whole being”. Does this mean that, for example, if the greatest amount of love that God can give to other being is 100 units, hGod loves each and every one with 100 units of love (I know that God’s love can’t be quantized, but for the sake of argument let’s assume that his love can be quantized)

Thank you,

Yes - God’s Love is infinite and he loves each of us with that same measure of Love. The more important question is: is each of us loving God to the best of our ability?

God loves everyone, not generically, but individually and specially. This is impossible for us to do or even conceive. Yet “nothing is impossible with God”. God created us an unique individuals. He knows everything about us. He remembers every word, action and thought we have ever had. God’s individual knowledge of us indicates His individualized love for us.

The Lord would leave the 99 sheep in the desert to focus His attention on you. If you were the only person in the world, Jesus would have died for you. The Heart of Jesus doesn’t love you because He loves everyone, rather, He loves everyone because He loves you individually and specially.

The only thing that impedes God’s love for us is ourselves.

God loves differently than we do. We love someone because of a good quality we perceive in them; God doesn’t love on the basis of good qualities, but actually *gives *the good qualities by loving them. Some of His creatures have greater qualities than others have, or ever will have (e.g. the plenitude of grace in the Blessed Virgin); therefore, God does not love all equally.

That said, God loves us impartially, in that He makes no distinction of persons, but loves every one. And He loves each of us enough to create us, redeem us, and have intimate union with us forever (if we will). In short, He loves us more than we deserve or could deserve, and more than enough to feel loved by our Maker.

God loves everyone of His children equally. Yet, for some reason, he calls us in different ways. God is a just judge. If we don’t follow His call, we will have to answer come judgment day. For some reason sometimes 2 people could perform the same act and only one will have to answer for it. That is because God called one to not do it and He didn’t call the other.

To humans it seems unfair that others can get away with things. However, God is just and He will not hold something against us if we genuinely did not know better.
