How much does God loves us

Nov 2, 2025    Fr Seraphim Saleeb
This sermon uses the miracle of Jesus resurrecting the widow of Nain's son to explore the infinite and incomprehensible love of God, emphasizing three key demonstrations. First, Jesus walked a significant distance—approximately 25 miles in one day—to show mercy to the widow, illustrating God's proactive pursuit of people in need. Second, Jesus intentionally touched the unclean corpse and coffin, a violation of custom, to communicate unconditional acceptance, signifying that God loves us regardless of our flaws or circumstances. Finally, Jesus's specific instruction, “Do not weep,” highlights God's profound care for our smallest details and personal feelings, affirming that our tears and troubles matter to him. The overarching message is a profound call to recognize and respond to this all-encompassing, seeking love from God, which surpasses all human knowledge and understanding.
