'The Agape Letters' to the House of Faith!

Volume 4 Chapter 4 Page 5

Monday April 9, 2007       21 Nissan 5767 (Hebrew 7th Month)

"The Deepest Love!"

"To be Given to Others!"
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>|||<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
Luke 6:35
(Amplified Version)

(Jesus speaking)
But love your enemies and be kind and do good
[doing favors so that someone derives benefit from them] and lend,
expecting and hoping for nothing in return
but considering nothing as lost and despairing of no one;
and then your recompense (your reward) will be great
(rich, strong, intense, and abundant),
and you will be sons of the Most High,
for He is kind and charitable and good
to the ungrateful and the selfish and wicked.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>|||<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

I was thinking as I read this scripture, how Christ knew and was willing to teach HIS disciples about God's Love.

Knowing that Love for those who have never known Love, would be the most trying test in a Believer's walk with Christ.

Christ taught that Love will conquer even the coldest, hardest hardened heart, and that same Love would also be the bond which would strengthen and then spread like the 'Vine' which HE said all Believers become part of.

There is nothing that is stronger and more resilient to testing and trials than Love, and it is Love that will bring Unity to the Body of Christ.

Despite the differences that people have concerning the nuances of Faith and Doctrine, where that has many times divided fellowships and even families, it must be that God's Love residing within the heart of those who believe and follow Christ, conquers the enemy of God who is determined to destroy every facet of a Believer's relationship.

Standing fast and holding firm in the Knowledge that Holy Spirit guides my every footstep, into the pathway of Righteousness for which God has appointed me to walk, that then forms a greater 'Bond of Love' between me and my Lord and Savior.

That too, must develop into a 'Bond of Love' between me and those around me who also seek to Obediently follow Christ, and between those who are yet to hear the WORD and chose to accept HIM as their Lord and Savior as well.

More of who Christ IS to me!

          MORE like HIM,

                        I desire to be!!

                      Some day SOON, with HIM I will BE!!!

O'Lord, today my heart is filled with YOUR Love,
for those around me who need to know YOU and YOUR Son!
Of YOUR Grace and Mercy, which is free and everlasting,
the message of Salvation and Eternal Life in YOUR Presence!!
Steer my footsteps to those who do not know Love,
that I may be YOUR witness of HIS Love and Goodness!!!
Pour out upon me an increased measure of YOUR Spirit,
for the boldness and strength to speak YOUR WORDs!
Each day I live to Honor and Glorify YOU,
The Holy One of Heaven,
who gave YOUR Life, so that others might live!!!

Hallelujah, HE is Risen,
and HE Loves for me to tell others about HIM!!!
Amen!!!
