LOVE IS ESSENTIAL


March 29, 2014


One of the vital ingredients needed to have a sweet and successful journey here on earth is love. Bible says God is love, so we are all children of a love God. We are all born of God and God is love so we are all born of love. I have come to understand that believers are meant to be the best lovers in this world because the nature of God is in them and the nature of God is love.

I understand it is sometimes difficult to love some unlovable people, but as believers, we are commanded to love. We can choose to love just those who love us but Bible says even the publicans do same. Matt 5:45 says out of love, “God maketh his sun to rise on the evil and on the good, and sendeth rain on the just and on the unjust.”

When the woman caught in the midst of adultery (even though I am still wondering where the man she was committing the adultery with was) was brought to Jesus, He didn’t say, “go away you dirty sinner,” rather, He set her free because of love. As believers, I have observed that love is a mouth talk for us but never shown. If you love that brother, you won’t gossip him. If you love that sister, you won’t bury her while she’s still alive. Love supports. Love cares for. Love is compassionate.

John 13:34-35 says, “A new commandment I give unto you, that ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.” Matt 5:44 says, “Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you.”

John 14:12 says greater works than Jesus did shall we do, so lets show greater love than Jesus did.

I love you!
