WHAT IS LOVE?
Life is never interesting without understanding the meaning of LOVE.
Life always rests on LOVE that is why whoever wants to enjoy life must
understand the meaning of LOVE. WHAT IS LIFE? Life is an existence.
Hebrew 13vs8 tells us that there is a being who never changes, the one
who has been in existence before the heaven was formed. Living in
existence without the reference of the existence Himself makes our
existence a mystery.
Back to LOVE, this is an unseen feeling to go beyond extra ordinary
so as to satisfy others, not expecting anything in return. John 3vs16
LOVE can be expressed in divers of ways. It does not choose whom to
LOVE. When you start choosing who to LOVE, it means the LOVE is
conditional. DO YOU "LOVE" THE PROSTITUTE, SMOKERS, DRUG ADDICTS,
FORNICATORS, ADULTERERS, IDOLATERS?
You don't need to LOVE what they do but LOVE them as an individual not seeing their sins but seeing them living a changed life.
For example, in my own case, I rarely see people who encourage me
day by day so I build up an encouragement in me that gave me the grace
to encourage and advise others also.
Many people out there are rejected, living mysteriously thereby
falling into sins always. These people need our UNCONDITIONAL LOVE. The
more we pray for them and show that JESUS LOVES them, the nearer
salvation is bought to them.
Matthew 5vs14, tells us that we are the light of the world, meaning
that we can not afford to hide ourselves. Let us show unconditional LOVE
to people.
Some christians always pick quarrels with their neighbors, church
members, colleagues at work. If you are among those so called
'christians' please repent and let people start seeing the light in you.
QUALITIES OF LOVE
1. Listening Heart (Patience)
2. It is always supportive (Adding value to others) Matthew 5vs16
3. It forgives easily
4. It defends
5. It is merciful
6. It is faithful (It does not jilt)
7. It is spiritual (unseen feelings)
8. It is unconditional (If it is conditional, them it is FAKE or DECEPTION)
8. It is sacrificial
9. It is considerate (Grace) Ephesians 2vs8
Failure to walk in all of these is very endangering to our christian race.
PRAYER: Father, have mercy on me in any area I have not met up to
your standard and give me the grace to walk in unconditional LOVE
for/with people in JESUS NAME
SHALOM!
