I'm going to start a "fruits of the spirits" sector.
Today, I'm going to talk about Love.
Love is usually depicted using the heart.
However, love doesn't come from the heart.
It comes from the spirit.
Mark 12:31 says ...... "Love your neighbor as yourself." .....
It's hard to do that. You build up strong relationships and they come tumbling down.
Part of being a Christian is being able to love people in all circumstances.
You can say, "Oh, I love ____" but you don't truly mean it.
In my opinion, love in the bible is shown as someone dying for you.
Would you die for your sibling or parents?
You might say yes, but in a hard time, your mindset is on surviving.
I'm not good with love, that's why this post is very scattered.
I think that God's love is enormous.
It extends around the perimeter of Jupiter.
More than that.
Are you loving?
Loving must be mixed with spiritual traits.
Spiritual traits like faith, goodness, the other fruits of the spirit.
What does love mean to me? Love means that you are kind, nice, loving (well duh.) and other fruits of the spirit. It all connects.
I have seen many times, that people see if you are Christian or not based on your actions.
This song -> reminds me of how we need to be.
People see how you are, and loving life and people is just the beginning. You don't see 100% perfect people everywhere, but trying is half the battle.
Can you imagine, someone died a terrible death, for you?
Jesus Christ loved you so much, that he was willing to die for you.
You, me, everyone takes it for granted everyday.
Today, look to the sky
and say,
"Thank you Jesus. For dying for me."
