The Birthright of Love
God’s love isn’t something you have to earn. As a believer in Jesus, love is your birthright.
A “birthright,” according to Merriam-Webster online, is “the right of the son born first in a family to inherit his father’s possessions.” In ancient Israel, for example, all the sons received some of their father’s property. Still, according to the Bible, the firstborn received a double portion and became the family leader.
When thinking about this from a mental health standpoint, I realized something powerful. If love is my birthright, I receive a double portion from our Father God. Then, in turn, I should consistently be producing love because, as my birthright, it overflows from me. In 1 Corinthians, we see this simple yet powerful example of why we should have love in our lives. Love is not just our birthright; it is our livelihood and our essence, and it brings healing to our minds.
