It’s easy to feel bombarded with information about what it means to love and to be loved. We have to remind ourselves that the template for true love isn’t found in cultural definitions, it was given to us by a God who represents the concept itself.
💕
God’s love is different from any other kind of love. In fact, the Bible says that GOD IS LOVE. God’s love is unconditional, extravagant, and everlasting. And, it’s for everyone.
💕
It can be challenging to love others (and ourselves) if we don’t love God first.
💕
Seeking God consistently is one of the best ways to learn about His perfect love, and to show Him devotion and honor in turn.
💕
When you see yourself the way God sees you, you can love others the way God loves you. God intended healthy relationships to be compassionate, sacrificial, and forgiving.
💕
God wants us to love one another the way He loves us.
💕
3 ways to love others:
*Pray for the people in your life.
*Serve someone with your time, talent, or finances.
*Be quick to listen, and to forgive.
