L-O-V-E

Let's not just talk about love; let's practice real love. This is the only way we'll know we're living truly, living in God's reality. It's also the way to shut down debilitating self-criticism, even when there is something to it. For God is greater than our worried hearts and knows more about us than we do ourselves.

And friends, once that's taken care of and we're no longer accusing or condemning ourselves, we're bold and free before God! We're able to stretch our hands out and receive what we asked for because we're doing what he said, doing what pleases him. Again, this is God's command: to believe in his personally named Son, Jesus Christ. He told us to love each other, in line with the original command. As we keep his commands, we live deeply and surely in him, and he lives in us. And this is how we experience his deep and abiding presence in us: by the Spirit he gave us.

Perfect Love.

Hey Bloggers, I was just reading my bible, and this really popped up and caught my eye. I hope it does the same for you as it did for me. There is so much truth in it, Let's practice real love! It is the number one, the basic, the first commandment, the "most important" commandment. Love. When we truly love all, it is then that we are understanding God's ways, and living in his reality!! So real, so true. This thing about self-criticism, our worries, love destroys those, love is bigger than that, in fact Love is the most powerful thing on earth and in heaven. Once we let love take over we are free! Free. The bible says that whoever the Son sets free is free indeed. We are free indeed with love! We will be pleasing God when we love, and isn't that our main goal? This is how we experience him, how we encounter him! Through Love. a love encounter, we will never be the same. the world will never be the same if we all love.

So let's practice love. Real Love. Let's wear off our loving spirits on people, let's love people so much that they have no other option then to love others around them. Let's practice loving those who have hurt us, who do hurt us. Let's be like Jesus, let's do this.

"All you need is love."
