So it seems to me that the word love is getting a seriously bad rap! I can love my food. I can love my cat. I can love that color and I can even love that movie. We throw the word love around so much have we truly forgotten what love is? Love is patient, love is kind, love doesn’t hurt, love is understanding and love forgives. So many of us throw the word love around like it’s a bouncy ball. We use it as filler in conversation. But to really break down the ultimate love, there is non that loves us greater than God who gave his son Jesus Christ to die for us. He laid down his life for our sins. Mine, yours, and even those who don’t believe (yet).
So often we hear about how we hate her/him. We hate what they do or what they think not realizing we are fueling satan’s plan with all of this discord. Only satan takes pleasure in peoples pain and destruction. You ever wonder why so many thing s go wrong at one time? Because satan knows that not just that one thing going wrong is going to knock you out of the battle, so he has to throw multiple things in your path. And yet as Christians and aspiring Christians we should be aware that satans job is to steal kill and destroy and if he were not on his job we would never become true believers. We are forced by satans hate and evil plan to spend more time with God. To pray like we have never prayed before. To anoint our homes, our jobs, our children, our vehicles and our churches you see satan, God has a plan too and he has reminded us that in our weakness He is the strongest and that only what we do for him will last.
So how dare I say I hate someone and I love God. The bible tells me that to love God I must love all of his creations. He reminds us of how can we say that we hate some one we see often and we love Him whom we have never seen. Time to do a love check. Are we loving God for the right reasons or are we just going through the motions? From this day forward I love everybody.
