Love, really?

Love means so many things to so many people. Love is not just a feeling or emotion, love is so much more then that! God's love toward us was much more than just a feeling, it was a sacrifice for a lost and dying world! A love that reaches beyond our comprehension, a love that people today try and analyze, why would God give His son for us? 

Because He truly loves us, He truly has a plan for our lives. He truly wants us free from sin that is destroying us daily. Only by giving His son the spotless, sinless, lamb of God, could He show us the amazing love he has for us. The problem with most people, they don't understand this kind of sacrificial love, because sin has blinded them to it! 

But God has provided the love deliverance to sin, Jesus Christ His only Begotten Son.

2 Corinthians 5:21 For our sake he made him to be sin who knew no sin, so that in him we might become the righteousness of God.

John 3:16-19English Standard Version (ESV)
16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. 17 For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him. 18 Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only Son of God. 19 And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil.

Just a thought!

Have you truly thought about the awesome God we serve, really? He is there for us 24/7 never making excuses, up early, up late, listening to our petitions! Even our complaining and excuse making, yet He listens and wants to carry us through. He never mentions deserting us or sleeping in, He is there, everyday, every minute!

When He faced the cross of Calvary, for 33 years or so, He never shrank back or found an excuse not to go! Even though we deserved what we should get for our actions and sin. He never stopped looking toward the cross! I think those are just a few things we need to consider in our walk with Him. We need to start thinking about why we cannot pray, get up, move ahead!

Jesus loved us so much, without excuse, up early praying for us, looking ahead to His death burial and resurrection for us! So much He did for us, and He asks so little in return except to be faithful, to be strong in Him and the power of His might! To pray, share the gospel, little to ask from our God who gave so much, to a people who appreciate so little!

Rethink your relationship with Jesus, draw close to Him and He will draw close to you! You are never alone, ever! 1 Thess. 5:17, Hebrews 13:5-6, Matthew 25, Eph. 6:10, James 4:8

James 4:8-Draw near to God and He will draw near to you.
