As Christians we need to show love to our brother, friends and family. In John 3:16 “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. In this, God first shown love, care for his son Jesus Christ who also came to the world to shower his blessings and love for us. Also in Galatians 2:20 I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God.
Who loved me and gave himself for me.We sometimes feel great respect and reverence for creative genius as expressed in great art or music. How much more should we revere the power and majesty of our Divine Creator? We may appreciate man’s creations of beautiful buildings or bridges. But remember the Apostle Paul’s words to the Hebrews: “He who hath build the house hath more honour than the house.
“For every house is build by some man; but he that built all things is God”
When we consider people who are irreverent, we may think of those who lack manners, sensitivity, and courtesy, and who show little or no respect for the finer things or for sacred things. Perhaps some lack reverence for life and for their fellowmen because they do not understand who they are and what they have the potential to become.God expresses his love for us by providing the guidance we need to progress and reach our potential. Perhaps a simple story will illustrate this point. Recently, a young man purchased a used computer but could not get it to work properly. Soon he became discouraged.
His temper grew short and he threatened the inanimate object with painful destruction unless its performance improved. A wise father intervened and took his son to a local vendor, where they obtained an instruction manual. After all, who would know more about a complex computer than the person or company that created it? Who would know most about its capacity and potential? Who would better know the safeguards required to avoid damaging or ruining this fine instrument? Soon the boy enjoyed the full potential of his computer by working within the guidelines given in the instruction book provided by its creator.
God always shown his love for us, we need to appreciate all what God has done and also do the to our neighbours in our society and world. God's love for his children can not be overemphasis.If we mortal soul can love our children, talk less of our Just, immortal, invisible, the only wise God. As evidence of his love, he sent his son our lord Jesus Christ (John 3:16) to die for us for the atonement of our sin that same love is sustaining us till now.There is no greater love than this.
