God is Love

Because GOD is love... He is unconditionally committed to my well being.

"This is real love--not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins." 1 John 4:10 Discover God Study Bible (NLT)

God's love is unconditional. It is not based on how good you are. He loves you because He is God and you are His creation.

God's love never fails. His love will not be terminated because of disappointment or a change of heart. He defines love and He demonstrates what true love looks like--Jesus gave His life on your behalf.

We, in turn, are to love God wholeheartedly. God has created us to find our greatest joy and fulfillment in loving Him.

God also enables us to be channels of His supernatural love. On our own, we are incapable of loving as we should, but God has an unending supply of love. It is for us to claim, to enjoy, and to share with others.

When we begin to love God, love our neighbors as ourselves, and love our enemies, society will change for the better through the transforming power of God's love.

"Nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord" Romans 8:39 Discover God Study Bible (NLT)
