Do You Really Believe That God Loves You?

taylorjamesalbert

Rich Mullins “There are many things in the Christian faith that are hard to get a handle on. And one of the things that I struggle the hardest with is believing that God really loves me. It’s too good to believe, but it’s true. Whether I can believe it or not. The fact is, I mean if you took the whole Bible and you shook it around and melted it down and said what is the essence of what this whole thing is saying, I think that it would just be that God loves you very much, that God in fact is crazy about you….To the degree that you can believe it, it changes things”.

“for the Father himself loves you, because you have loved me and have believed that I came from God”.

~~~John16:27 (ESV)~~~

“but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us”.

~~~Romans 5:8 (ESV)~~~

“So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him”.

~~~1 John 4:16 (ESV)~~~

“Give thanks to the God of heaven, for his steadfast love endures forever”.

~~~Psalm 136:26 (ESV)~~~

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life”.

~~~John 3:16 (ESV)~~~

Walking Worthy of Our Calling

taylorjamesalbert

“I therefore, the prisoner of the Lord, beseech you that ye walk worthy of the vocation wherewith ye are called, With all lowliness and meekness, with longsuffering, forbearing one another in love; Endeavouring to keep the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one hope of your calling; One Lord, one faith, one baptism, One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all. But unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Wherefore he saith, When he ascended up on high, he led captivity captive, and gave gifts unto men.”

~~~Ephesians 4:1-8 (KJV)~~~

Praising His Everlasting Love

taylorjamesalbert

“But the mercy of the Lord is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children’s children; To such as keep his covenant, and to those that remember his commandments to do them. The Lord hath prepared his throne in the heavens; and his kingdom ruleth over all. Bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word. Bless ye the Lord, all ye his hosts; ye ministers of his, that do his pleasure. Bless the Lord, all his works in all places of his dominion: bless the Lord, O my soul.

Love is…

taylorjamesalbert

Instead of loving others, we choose to hurt, instead of loving others we choose to use, instead of loving others we choose to abuse…how’s that really working out for you?

“If I [can] speak in the tongues of men and [even] of angels, but have not love (that reasoning, intentional, spiritual devotion such as is inspired by God’s love for and in us), I am only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal” 1 Corinthians 13:1 (AMPC).

“If I speak with human eloquence and angelic ecstasy but don’t love, I’m nothing but the creaking of a rusty gate” 1 Corinthians 13:1 (MSG).

“Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal” 1 Corinthians 13:1 KJV).

“If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal” 1 Corinthians 3:1 (ESV).

 “Though I speak with the tongues of men and Angels, and have not love, I am as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal” 1 Corinthians 13:1 (GNV).

Choose to love,…and begin with yourself.

We Shall Conquer By His Love

taylorjamesalbert

“Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord” Romans 8:37-39 (KJV).
