Can anyone even begin to comprehend God's love for us? This is such a big subject that I could blog every second for all eternity and still never even get close to covering God's love for us. Just listen to the song "How He Loves" by the David Crowder Band . . it might just bring you to tears like it does to me everytime I hear them say "Oh how he loves us". This weekend I will admit . . . I was very down in the dumps because I felt so unloved, just because I did lose two people that I really did love. But you know people come and go and you can't help but love the people God brings into your life . . . the hard part is loving them even when they do you wrong or just walk out of your life. So since there is so much I could cover I'll pick 3 central points: God's love for you, your love for others, and love through actions.
Point 1:
God's love for you is sooooooo big that we could never even begin to understand it. Just the fact that he sent his only son to die for you . . . to take your place . . . now that's big! Then he can still love us even when we sin every day . . . and go against him he still loves us! If you were somehow not seeing God's love for you . . . pick up your Bible and read any part of it and I guarentee you will feel the love overflowing your soul because guess what the Bible is: A LOVE LETTER WRITTEN TO YOU FROM GOD. bam.
Point 2:
We are supposed to love others as Christ loves us . . or 'the church'. So yeah I know it's hard but guess what . . . haha that's the point! The harder it is the more awesome the reward will be! So yes if someone slaps one cheek you offer the other! If you get your heartbroken and you can't find any reason to love them because they did you so wrong, you love them anyway! You know why? Because they're your brother and sister in Christ! Pray for them, be there for them, love them with all that you can!
Point 3:
How? Do something out of the ordinary to be nice, pray for them, compliment them, just be nice, or SMILE! You would be surprised how just a smile can make a person's day completely better. Through these things you can show God's love to others, just one smile at a time and we could change the world. Love isn't supposed to be bottled up . . . it's supposed to be shared and passed along.
To anyone reading this . . . don't forget that you are loved. If you are loved by one person on earth then you are blessed . . if you are loved by more then one then you are really blessed! But don't ever say you are not loved because you will always be loved . . .. God loves you and that will never change. All you have to do is open your eyes and see all the love around you . . . you will never be the same.
