A Heart For God

1–2 minutes

Beverley

Most people celebrate February as the month for love.

We express our love in gifts and words, but how does God express His love toward us?

For when we were still without strength, ]in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. 

But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. (Romans 5:6-8)

This is the greatest expression of love. Therefore,

“Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God, the Lord is one! You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your strength (Deuteronomy 6:4)

Let us return the love to God. Only one way we can do this.

“If you love Me, keep My commandments.  And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may abide with you forever. (John 14:15-16)

When we are obedient to the Word of God, His love will abide in our hearts. Only then we will be able to love one another.

A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” (John 13:34-35)

The only love that matters is the love of God. The love that is true and forever faithful.

Thank you, Lord for your love.

    Obedience is for our good. We need the chastisement of the Holy Spirit to keep us on the narrow way. ty:)

    This is great!
    The lord’s love is the most potent expression that no human can match.
    To me this means that

    “Being romantic and doing nice can be a disguise
    since it doesn’t guarantee love all the time
    But it can be all lies disguising negative energy as positive energy.
    When we lack money or have empty bellies
    we fall victim to bullies that work for the serpeant
    that use tactics to kill you with kindness.
    They shine a light when you are living in darkness.
    But the problem is the light is to bright
    have to cover your eyes and now walking blind.
    Telling you and promising you all types of romatic surprises
    telling you want you wanna hear.
    Act friendly and sometimes volunteer
    a helping hand when its to their benefits
    but turn into a completely different person
    when scarfices arises then promises turn into excuses.
    Left you to dry struggling
    Now feel abandoned
    Tears are leaking, heart is broken,
    for feeling stupid
    for following bullies that follow the sepreant.
    If you are reading this and this poem is relatable to you
    read this post and know that this was meant for you
    becuase nobody loves you more than Jesus
    So before you follow a stranger you don’t know,
    think about the consequences and always pray to Jesus
    because Jesus made a scarfice
    that no human will ever have the strength to make.
    Promises break and humans constantly demonstrate their true ways
    when they are face with a sacrifice that they don’t want to make.
    So moral of this is, Jesus is the way
    to paradise.
    Jesus love you so much that if you follow him
    He provides eternal life.
    So another words this is relatable to your life
    because love is more than romance
    true love is about sacrifice.”

    Lol I was in the zone and reading this just gave me motivation to write a short poem
    Good post

      Wow! Great poetry. You need to post this on your blog. Thank you sharing it with me on my blog. The false love reminds me of valentine’s day. Some people only show love on this day.
