February 11, 2007

Good morning! We have something wonderful to share. The love of Jesus Christ, it doesn’t come in boxes or bags, he paid for it himself and we cannot purchase it, and he gives it freely to all. The love of Jesus brings joy, light, hope, and strengthens faith to an unbreakable bond. The beautiful sunrise reminds of his love through the entire day, just as the beautiful sunset reminds us that he loves through the darkest nights. None can gainsay his love, none can steal it from another, and none can force it out of a heart sealed by Christ. Any of us can choose to ignore the love of Christ, but it will reach out to us anyway and every way possible. The love of Jesus brings friends closer, but not as close as Jesus is to us at all times. His love causes our best behavior and allows us to empathize with even a total stranger. The hurting of a loved one brings sympathy to our hearts, but as Christ hurts with each of us, his love brings healing to the broken hearted. The love we have for each other grows from the love of Christ. The world would not know love at all were it not for his example. The world may shrug it off, try to ignore it, try to live without it, try to argue it out of existence with intellect and logic, and it may try to destroy it with weapons and hatred, but the love of Jesus stands majestic over all. Love him or hate him, no one can ignore Jesus Christ and one day we will sing, “He Reigns!”

Live in the love of Jesus!
