Ultimate Love Leading To Ultimate Obedience

God says love. you love.
God says forgive. you forgive.
God says give, you give.
God says sacrifice, you give.
God says lay down your life, you lay down your life.
God says tithe, you tithe.
God says love somemore, you love somemore.
God says give somemore, you give somemore.
God says forgive again, you forgive again.
Keep your comments to yourself.
No ifs, no buts, dont argue, dont complain.

Love is obedience.
Jesus was obedient, even to the point of death.
No terms and conditions.

Should we stop loving just because its painful?
Did He?
Should we stop giving just because we havent received anything?
Did He?
Should we stop laying down our lives just because the person isnt worth it?
Did He?

We say we are 'christians'...'little' Christs.
Are we even a 'little' bit like Christ?

Trust and obey, for there's no other way
To be happy in Jesus, But to trust and obey.

God is love. No God, no love.
Therefore, Christlikeness is synonymous with the extent of our love.

To be like God, is to be like love.
Not your love, not the world's love, but HIS love.

Do we love someone because the person will love us back?
Or do we love someone because we cannot DONT love?

Do we give because we know the person will repay us?
Or do we give because we cannot DONT give?

Do we forgive because if we dont, we wont feel better?
Or do we forgive because He first forgave us?

Who is love benefitting?
Us? Or them?

Above all, let everything be done to the glory of God.
