We all need LOVE

Happy Friday!
I hope you all are having a great start to the weekend!

There is SO much written and so many examples of love in the Bible. There are just a few of those verses that I wanted to share with you today.

If you get a chance you should look up on google or in the Concordance of your Bible all of the verses on love! Its amazing!

So lets Dig In!

Christ is our greatest example of love and loving others. He loved us soooo very much that he gave himself up for us by dying on the cross for OUR sins. So that we may be forgiven and live with Him for eternity if we choose too.

Ephesians 5:1-2
Be imitators of God, therefore, as dearly loved children and live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God.

Romans 5:8
But God demonstrates his own love for us in this; While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

John 13. 34
A new command I gove you; Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.

1 Peter 4:8
Above all, love each other deeply, because love covers over a multitude of sins.

God loves us more than anything. And his greatest command to us is love one another and show love to those around us.

What exactly is love, you ask? God tells us that in 1 Corinthians.

1 Corinthians 13: 4-8
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.

If there's ever a time in your life when you don't feel loved....Remember God loves you more anyone on earth ever could. His love is overflowing for YOU!

Show love to those around you today.
