John

What has love got do with it?
Everything.
He is love.
He created a being, already forseeing the pain of Gethsemane.
It was for love.
He created Man, creative and inquisitive, in His own beautiful image
He created a being to fellowship with Him.
A being with the ability to choose Him, repent to Him, seek Him in trials and tribulations, happiness and celebrations.
He created us, despite the price of our salvation.
It was because of love, faithful love, that we may love and be loved.
But don’t just quote John 3 somethin and expect people to understand what His love is.
We must showcase, shine, and revive this final commandment of our redeemer.
Love the unloved, outcasts and unseen just as He did.
Faith without action is dead, and lately the church has been filled with hatred.
Despising a brother or sister for their sexual orientation, or the daily high they use for relaxation.
Shunning the young girl pregnant and unwed, alone and abandoned, her baby aborted.
How can we call ourselves desciples of Christ while we tuck away the commandment He held highest?
“Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is none other commandment greater”
This is the final commandment of our Savior and instead we selectively love our neighbor.
Do they fit this cut out version of what is considered a Christian?
Are their bushes trimmed do they attend church?
Do I show them this love only if i recieve it in return?
We have created this idea that to deserve love you must be qualified, but how worthy were you when God sent for you His only Son to die.
This, my brothers and sisters is love.
To lay down one’s life just because
To be slapped across the cheek and offer another
To forgive the ones commiting your very own murder.
To selfessly love is something taught from our Father,
And as we live in Him, this love will go farther.
It will cease the suicides, homocides, and mass genocides.
Overthrowing corruption, destruction, and oppression.
His love is the light in our darkness. Let us join together and bring this light to the masses.
This light so bright, the earth will outshine the sun.
Our Father’s Selflesss love.
