All in Loving as God Loves

Possessing and Perfecting the Love of God

As believers our greatest desire should no longer be for earthly things but for the Godly things founded in His steadfast love for us. Our love for the Lord hasn’t prompted Him to love us, but it is His amazing love for us that leads us to love Him. He chooses us, and from this, His loving attention, we blossom in our praise, adoration, and love for Him. So, do we love Him as we should? Do we desire the love of God above all else, and does it drive us towards Him with all our heart and attention? Does it separate us from the world? Does it cause us to love others as ourselves?

Perfect in Love… Just Because

Have you ever not liked someone from the very moment you met them? Did you somehow sense that they were bad, did you think that you were incompatible, or maybe that there was something about them which was too much like yourself… some part of you that you didn’t like too much? Well God could have disliked us for all of these same reasons, and yet He loved us instead, and we should love others just as He first loved us… just because.
