Love

The more i keep falling in love with Jesus the more i learn about His heart. I love Jesus with all that is inside of me and because of that i have learned that I also need to love. I can't just sit back and see that I have brothers and sisters who are in need. I need to love them and take care of them. That is what a family is. God taught us to pray our Father and to me what that means that I have a new family that family is my brothers and sisters in Christ. That means that i should take care of them, love them, and pray for them. Just because we arent related by "blood" we are related by the blood of Christ. That means that i should love them more and more daily.

If my brother and sister or mom and dad were in need i would drop everything to go by there side and take care of them and to pray that God would heal them. Why don't we do that for are brothers and sisters in Christ. Why don't we love them the same when are brothers and sisters in Christ are in need. We are called to love like Christ. We are called to hold what we have learned from the bible and take it to heart. We are to act like Christ. 1 John 3:16 says this is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. So my final question is are you willing to lay down your life for you brothers and sisters in Christ. Are you willing to walk like Christ and to do what He did? Because that is what He has called us to do.

1 John 2:3-6 says this. We know that we have come to know him if we obey his commands. The man who says, "I know him," but does not do what he commands is a liar, and the truth is not in him. But if anyone obeys his word, God's love is truly made complete in him. This is how we know we are in him. Whoever claims to live in him must walk as Jesus did. Well those verses i believe speak alot of truth. How can we claim to be "Christians" if we dont care for our brothers and sister, if we don't love are neighbor as ourself. Isn't that one of the commandments Jesus gave us. Matthew 28:39 Jesus says And the second is like it: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' If we claim to have Jesus in our hearts and souls we will LOVE!! Love is the greatest commandment Jesus gave us.

So love people like yourself and mostly see Jesus in them. Love them because Jesus has called you to that. Don't look down on people. Love them like Jesus. You will have many blessings in your life. Jesus gave us His life so the only thing we can give Him is our life and to love people the way He has called us to
