God’s love for us never fails. Psalm 103.8
God strengthens us when we are afraid. Isaiah 41:10
God brings good out of bad circumstances. Romans 8:28
God will never leave us or fail us. Hebrews 13:5
Nothing can separate us from God’s love. Romans 8:39
The bible teaches that love is a commitment. As a commitment, love is not dependent on good feelings, but rather on a consistent and courageous decision to extend oneself for the well-being of another. That commitment then produces good feelings, not the other way around. Jesus became the perfect example of God’s unconditional love for us by laying down his life for us.
How can one human being measure God’s love? John 15:13 NLT: And here is how to measure it—the greatest love is shown when people lay down their lives for their friends. What if I don’t want to show love to a stranger on a particular day when I am going through something myself? Suck it up! It is not about what you want it’s about what God’s word says. Being a Christian comes with certain expectations, and one of them is that we will love others. Our Christian conduct is proof as to whether we love each other, and loving each other is proof that we belong to Christ.
Christian also includes a love for our enemies. Matt 5:43-44 NLT: You have heard that the law of Moses says, “Love your neighbor” and hate your enemy. But I say love your enemies! “ Pray for those who persecute you!
Only in Christ’s love can we love our enemies. I know you are asking your selves, is she crazy or what! One of the hardest things we can do is forgive someone who has wronged us. But it is only through experiencing forgiveness that one clearly see God’s great gift of salvation. Your mercy may be just what someone needs to be ushered into God’s Kingdom.
