His Love Remains

“For the mountains may move and the hills disappear, but even then my faithful love for you will remain. My covenant of blessing will never be broken,” says the LORD, who has mercy on you. — Isaiah 54:10 (NLT) Sometimes,  our earthly father or mother will abandon us, or a spouse may leave us. However, don’t let negative experiences with flawed humanity stop you from being open to receive all the love, and peace  our heavenly Father lavishes on us. The LORD’s ways are higher than our ways. When He says His love for us will remain, He is faithful to keep His Word. Our actions don’t determine His love for us. The fact that He chose us in Him before the foundation of the world (Ephesians 1:4), and knit us together in our mother’s womb (Psalm 139:13 NIV) demonstrates the strong determination of His love. His love is very intentional and persistent. His covenant of peace and blessing is everlasting. It will never be broken. Glory hallelujah!

Intentional Love

If I [can] speak in the tongues of men and [even] of angels, but have not love (that reasoning, intentional, spiritual devotion such as is inspired by God’s love for and in us), I am only a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. — 1 Corinthians 13:1 (AMP) Let us all be inspired by the love God has shown to us. For God loved the world so much that He intentionally gave his one and only Son, so everyone who believes in Him will not perish but have eternal life (John 3:16). Love is an action word. To show love and truly serve humanity is something we have to purpose in our hearts and actually follow through with our “DOING.” Are you just going to make a lot of noise or are you going to intentionally touch others with the sacrificial, genuine love of Christ? It’s your choice. Choose wisely!
