WHAT IS LOVE!

WHAT IS LOVE?


There is a deep longing inside of all us to love and be loved… We all want to have that special someone to share the rest of our lives with. Who wouldn’t want that kind of love? Are you looking for LOVE? The kind of love that last for ever, love that you can always depend on, LOVE that will never fail you. There is someone that can give us this kind of love… His name is Jesus Christ! His love will never fail you and Jesus will never leave or abandon you. Jesus love can mend broken hearts; He heals old scars, painful memories… NO human can do for you what only GOD can do!

We all have been guilty of looking for love in all the wrong places and sometimes we fall in love with people who don’t love us in return. Have you ever asked yourself… Is this love thing for me? Am I meant to be happy?

The answer to that question is: YES! We are all meant to be happy but true happiness starts with a relationship with Jesus Christ first… Success starts and ends with Jesus being the center of our lives. If we go about it without Jesus we will be susceptible to only temporary solutions, temporary relationships, and lots of disappointments… Nothing that will stick around for the long hall, that’s for sure!

The Bible Says:

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an anointing sacrifice for our sins.” (1 John 4:10)

Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But GOD demonstrates his own love for us in this: (Watch This… Don’t Miss It!) While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” (Romans 5:7-8)


Note: Amazing LOVE… Amazing GRACE! How GOD loves the human race so! This is the kind of love that captured my soul…never do I want to be away from my Savior! “Taste and see that the Lord is GOOD… (Psalms 34:8) Some say; the proof is in the pudding… Come and taste! See for yourself… how good Jesus love is! There is nothing like it… NOTHING!!

Many people live as enemies of the cross… they don’t believe God exist and most people think that all Christians are brain washed anyway! But I know that if they really gave God a chance they will know… without a shadow of a doubt that He is very real and that God’s love is truly genuine. God loves mankind … especially those that don’t believe in Him or love Him in return. “For the Son of Man came to seek and to save what was lost.” (Luke 19:10) Jesus will never give up on us. Jesus is still waiting for you to invite Him into your heart… He can fill you with His amazing love and give you a peace like you’ve never known or ever felt. (Phil. 3:18/ Revelation 3:20/ Phil. 4:7)

The Bible Says:

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. (Watch This Don’t Miss It) LOVE NEVER FAILS.” This is how God loves us every day…Real LOVE! (1 Corinthians 13:4-8) We MUST also learn to love everyone in this way...Loving people as GOD loves us. (Matthew 7:12, Mark 12:33, 1 John 3: 10, 23)

Note: Some of you may say… “It’s easy for my pastor or for that person to say what they say about “Love”… They have a wonderful marriage, home, children, etc and everything is going good for them and they seem to be happy too… Of course they can say that”! Well, did it ever occur to you that perhaps they put GOD first because truly happy is the person that does!


The BIBLE Says: “GOD IS LOVE” (John 4:16)
