IT’S A MATTER OF FACT!

JESUS USED HIS WILL TO LOVE

 

As we see things changing in our world, it is vital that we learn to live in the LOVE OF GOD as a lifestyle.

 

I Corinthians 13:4-8 gives us the description of what the Lord expects of us.  It is very important we know every aspect of this type of our Christian life, as it is the way our faith will work.  Below are all of the aspects of this type of love from the Amplified Bible.  Just to be very honest with you, I have this is my bathroom on the wall opposite of where I sit down.  When I encounter a situation that I need to be reminded of the kinds of love I need to respond with, I “take a break” and go read.  It’s a great way to start your day by reading the ways to react out loud as well.  Then when the highways are crowded on the way to work, your husband says unkind things to you (or your wife), kids are out of sorts, you can react the way Jesus would react. Oh yes, I’ve written it from the standpoint we are saying it – after all, we are born of God, and we’re His kids.

 

I endure long

I am patient and kind

I am never envious

I don’t boil over with jealousy

I’m not boastful or vainglorious

I don’t display myself haughtily

I’m not conceited (arrogant and inflated with pride)

I’m not rude and unmannerly

I don’t act unbecomingly

I don’t insist on my own rights or my own way

I’m not self-seeking

I’m not touchy, fretful or resentful

I TAKE NO ACCOUNT OF AN EVIL DONE TO ME

I pay no attention to a suffered wrong

I don’t rejoice at injustice and unrighteousness

I rejoice when right and truth prevail

I bear up under anything and everything that comes

I’m ever ready to believe the best of others

My hopes never fade under all circumstances

I endure everything without weakening

I never fail because I’m born of Love and Love never fails!!!

 

This is Jesus’ Win – Win situation.  It goes against every grain of the natural man’s ways of reacting.  However, when you adapt to doing it God’s way, you will see many positive things beginning to come into your lives.  Jesus wouldn’t have told us to live this way, if He couldn’t give us the power to do it.  He can and He will!!!

 

Have a blessed month.
