John 15:13 NKJV
“And when“Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down one’s life for his friends.”
John 15:13 NKJV
Jesus did not only teach us about love but demonstrated love by giving His life for us.
The greatest form of love is when we would give our lives to help others.
Jesus laid His life so that He can give eternal life to all mankind. Love gives, cares, is patient, long-suffering, and is kind.
These are the characteristics of our God who loves us. He patiently waits for us to come and live in Him.
Love is not consumed by self.
Love is consumed to care for others in need. That is what Jesus did and that is who God is.
Today we live in a world that only wants love but not giving love. The world has lost its true meaning of love.
The reason for losing love is because they reject the source of love and that is God.
True care and true love can only come about when it flows out of God.
We who believe in Jesus Christ have this true love inside of us. Therefore, we can let God’s love flow out and touch one another with His love.
The best way to experience the God kind of love is when we start to love people unconditionally.
That is the way God loves us.
He loves us with His unconditional love. We must not put conditions on His unconditional love.
When we love someone with a condition, we shortchange ourselves from that true love.
Let us learn from our Lord Jesus Christ and exercise the unconditional love of God that is in us.
Blessings
