Watch what
God does,
and then
you do it.
Mostly what
God does is love you.
Keep
company with Him and learn a life of love.
Observe how
Christ loved us.
His love
was extravagant.
He gave everything
of Himself to us.
Love like
that.
Ephesians
5:1-2
I just
can't get away from
the subject
of love these days.
Maybe it's
because I'm aware
of how little
I love.
But God is
speaking to that which is little,
and assuring me that it will still yet be large.
I have the
life of the Spirit living in me.
I am
empowered by grace to live
my life
through His Spirit.
As you love
Me, I will love others through you.
If we were
limited by our finite hearts,
we would
indeed be in trouble,
ruled by
feelings and emotion,
protective
for our own well being and honor.
But because the Infinite reached into the finite,
we had our loveless chains broken off.
we had our loveless chains broken off.
When only
love could make a way
You gave Your life in a beautiful exchange...
My only
desire, and sole ambition
Is to love
You just the same.
The
answer for my lack of love
isn't
struggling to love more.
It is about seeking the Love
that knows no bounds,
It is about seeking the Love
that knows no bounds,
losing my life and finding it in Him.
I want to
be aware of Him--more.
I want to
set my mind on Him--more.
I want to
know Him--more.
I want to live and move and
have my being in His presence--more.
Perfect
Love fills me with the fullness
“To
have found God and still to pursue Him
is
the soul’s paradox of love.”
A.W.Tozer

Walk in love,
even as Christ also loved you...

Through a tough relationship, He has been revealing how little I love also....thank You for the reminder that I can't make myself love more...I can only go to the One who turns hearts of stone to hearts of flesh.
Thank you, Kathy, and good morning! -KJ
