God is Love

The Bible does not say that love is God; it states that God is love. This means that God defines what love truly looks like. In our world, we often use the term "love" in various ways, from loving pizza and new outfits to expressing love for our family and friends. This broad usage can be complicated by our relationships, especially when those we love sometimes hurt us. As a result, our understanding of love can become distorted and diminish its true value.

When we comprehend God's love, we gain a genuine understanding of what it means to truly love another person, especially someone who is difficult to love. This deeper understanding can change everything.

God's love is not like our love; it's truly unconditional, full of grace and mercy. A love that sees through the bad choices and mistakes and sees to the very core of who we really are. We should strive to see and love people this way and we could IF we would heal our hurts and chase Jesus instead of the things of this world.

John 13:34-35

Jesus says, I give you a new commandment. Love each other just as much as I have loved you. For when you demonstrate the same love I have for you by loving one another everybody will know that you're my faithful followers
