God is Love
1 John 4:8
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
1 John 4:8 “God is love” is one of the most favorite verse in the bible about love.
It is telling us that God alone is enough for us for He is love, if we have God we can love and we are loved! we don’t need to find someone else to beg for love, what we need is a God that love us. When someone sees you doing wrong do you think they will love you? some maybe yes and they will understand what you are doing and maybe correct it, but some will sees you as a sinner everyone hates, but remember God died for us at the cross even we are sinners!Romans 5:6-8
6 You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. 7 Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. 8 But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
He died for us even we keep on sinning, and thats because of His love for us! thats the unconditional love of God for us! that even we do wrong God is still hoping that we will change! that we’ll get back on the right track! God is always waiting for us. God only want from us is to love Him! the bible said it so clearly many times.
Deuteronomy 6:5 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength.Matthew 22:37 Jesus replied: “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.”
Mark 12:30 Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.
Luke 10:27 He answered, “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.it is not just saying “I love You Lord” but by keeping that in your heart! for example when it comes to Sunday service and work. what will you choose? you’re thinking? no you shouldn’t think it should be automatically GOD FIRST! in Matthew 6:33 says “But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well.” we cannot serve both God and money! but God promise us! if we put Him first! everything we need ! He will give it to us! if your required to work on Sunday and if you don’t work you’ll get fired? who’s to blame? of course the work! :DGod wants to remove everything from your life that will keep you away from Him. only if you allow Him to. and He will replace them into something new and better! God plans for us is good! :) we just need to trust Him! believe in everything that is written in the bible!
it is also written that we should love our neighbor ! what if this neighbor of yours talk bad about you? what if this someone hurt you? should I love them?
YES! God show us an example. even we are sinner He still love us! and it is written Love your enemy Matthew 5:44 “But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,” even someone is not doing good, we must love them as Christ love us. We must follow what Christ did for us.
John 16:1 “I have said this things to you to keep you from falling away.” God show that example for us to do the right and good in the eyes of God. we must love one another. :) we learn how to love be cause He love us first! with God’s words we will learn the right way of loving. :)
God loves you forever and ever! :)
God bless

Such a beautiful post full of light and love. Yes...God is love...sometimes He even uses tough love in order to correct and guide us with His wisdom. We can possess many things - material things or spiritual gifts - but they are worth little if we don't have LOVE.
