All in Love of Jesus

From the moment we first believe, when Jesus comes to dwell in us, we receive a new and abundant ability to love, but for it to reach its full capacity we must nurture our faith, and gain day by day a greater understanding of the heart of Christ. As we know Him better, and He increases in us, so does the fullness of God. In this way we are blessed, and those around us come to experience God’s love for them… some realizing it for the very first time.

Jesus gave us a new commandment; that we are to love one another, and we are not simply to love them as one man loves another, but with a divine love, an agape love. Jesus tells us this when He says “just as I have loved you.” Are we capable of this? We know that this is how we love God, and how He loves us, but can we step into His shoes and love another human being as we are loved by Him? Can we step out of our world and love each other in an entirely new and wonderful way?
