A person who continually reveals a heart of love one might say, now that’s love in action. For genuine love has a kind of majestic power that penetrates straight to the heart and causes it to do something. It’s a love like no other. That kind of love is God’s love; for God is Love. His love motivates the heart to fill the world with acts of love.
In the Bible, we read about many of love’s attributes. Each one exemplifies how unselfish love is. Just to name a few: “Love is patient and kind; love doesn’t to envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth” (1 Corinthians 13:6 ESV). Now that’s love.
God didn’t just talk love. His love moved on its own to reveal its love willingly without grudging or urging, forcing or demanding. That love was demonstrated through His Son, Jesus our Lord. “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through him might be saved” (John:16 KJV) Now, that’s love. Let everyday be a day of love.
I will keep on thanking God for His ever saving and unselfish love. By Hertistine Washington/keeponthanking.com.
Amen. Without grudging or urging, forcing or demanding.
