Ephesians 4:2-3
Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.” “Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.”
1 Peter 4:8:
“Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.”
John 15:12:
“My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.”
For me, the definition of love is many, and almost everyone will have a different aspect or view of love, or what love is when asked. But, for me…the one that stands out above all else is the One Being whom I define as LOVE and that, of course, is the LORD.
We have all kinds of compartments within us that have the capacity in which to love, and various ways in which to love. There is the love between siblings, the love between friends, the love between colleagues, the love between fellow Christians, or those of faith, the love between aunts, uncles, cousins, or family so to speak, the love of a mother, the love of a father, and the love of being a “fur parent.”
And, then there is the consummate and proverbial all time love that exists between the you and the LORD. That to me is the definitive and the one LOVE that stands out in my mind.
To love is to be Christ-like.
To love is to be humble.
To love is to be kind.
To love is to be compassionate.
To love is to be filled with light.
To love is to be filled with the Word.
To love is to be multi-tasked in relationships.
To love is to know God.
And LOVE is GOD.
Remember the love of God in all we encounter each and everyday.
And, remember the love of God in the journey of life in which we travel.
And, remember the love of God that is inside of us, the Holy Spirit.
And, remember the Son, who loved us to die for us and save us.
And,most especially, remember, the LORD who loved us so much, He gave His Son for us. (John 3:16)
“Father thank You for Your love and Your unending compassion and grace, thank You for being with me and never leaving me ever, I love You now and always, in Jesus name, Amen.”
Yes and HIS LOVE lifted me!
Isn’t He amazing? Amen.
