Unconditional Love - February 16,2015












Matthew 5:46   If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that?

1 John 4:18 ESV      There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love.

1 Corinthians 13:4-7 ESV      Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.



Being loved is an amazing thing, but sometimes the world forgets what it's like and what it feels like to love and be loved. Even worse, you can be a part of the group that neglects the importance of what it means to love or you could be expecting that feeling to be enhanced by your spouse, your helpmate... Whether that love is void or lacking, it doesn't give you a pass to stop loving them. Marriage is about loving unconditionally. Don't ever make you love for someone dependent upon theirs for you....if you do it isn't love at all.
