John 21:20-25

John 21:20-25 
English Standard Version (ESV)

  Heaven could not contain the love of God when humans turned from God in sin -- love raced out to redeem and to save.
  The tomb, even a new one, could not contain Jesus Christ, for God is stronger than death, hope is greater than despair.
  The world itself cannot contain the list of deeds that Jesus did, for they are too many and too great.  We have the Gospels that point to Jesus and the love of God, and we read to learn how to live and to learn how to hope and to learn how to serve, and yet there is so much more beyond the horizon.  We lift our eyes to the hills, and what we can glimpse in this life is only a hint of the beauty that awaits.
