1 John 4:17-18 MSG

"God is love. When we take up permanent residence in a life of love, we live in God and God lives in us. This way, love has the run of the house, becomes at home and mature in us, so that we’re free of worry on Judgment Day—our standing in the world is identical with Christ’s. There is no room in love for fear. Well-formed love banishes fear. Since fear is crippling, a fearful life—fear of death, fear of judgment—is one not yet fully formed in love......
If anyone boasts, “I love God,” and goes right on hating his brother or sister, thinking nothing of it, he is a liar. If he won’t love the person he can see, how can he love the God he can’t see? The command we have from Christ is blunt: Loving God includes loving people. You’ve got to love both".

It is the season of Love,a day set aside by us all to appreciate that loved one,special person or help someone that can pay us back(less privileged)
However we choose to look at it,love still pops up here and there and I believe its a good medium to talk about the true Love and giver of life Himself,Jesus Christ and the message of Love He has for us.

Do ponder on these things! Do we really have Love? Have we really experienced love? Have I truly shared love? What exactly is Love to me and what have I done to express Love to others.

Has the church really grabbed true love? IF we have,why do we still compete,criticize,and why is there soo much division,rivalry,jealousy and inner hate? We are one body in Christ we say but the leg does not help the limbs neither does the arm help the shoulder.
If we had love there would be no killing,no stealing,no wars,no battles,no fears....we would be a set of people who let the word of God we hear have meanings in our lives. 1 John 3; 11 For this is the original message we heard;we should Love each other!
Once again ponder on these things!

Thank you Jesus for the gift of Salvation
