[The Love Of God] Steadfast, Irrevocableಮಾದರಿ

God is Love

Regardless of what version of the Bible we choose to read, the word “love” is found many times in the Bible. We can find it everywhere. We find love from creation to creation, from creation to Creator, and from Creator to creation. And it can be described in so many different ways. 

Have you ever asked yourself what true love really is? Have you ever felt it? Have you ever really loved? We are going to focus on The Love of God for the duration of this devotional. And we will discover some aspects of the Love of God towards us, towards each other and towards Him. First, we should define what love is according to the Bible. 1 Corinthians has the perfect definition of what true love really is and means. Love is not just a feeling, or an emotion, or even a reaction to someone else’s actions. Love is. It is not something that is attached to actions. True love does not change according to what the object of affection does or does not do. It just is.

God is love. Everything He does and everything He did is because of love. He is the purest form of love. He is the true measurement of love. Love was made by Him, for Him, through Him. It is not until after we get to know God that we can truly understand what love is. 

God shows us His love for us in so many ways. He gave His son in sacrifice for the forgiveness of our sins because He loves us so much! He makes everything to work together for our good because he loves us. He created everything for us to enjoy, because He loves us. It does not matter what we do or do not do, God is love. And because He is love, He cannot go against Himself. It is who He is; it is based on His character, not our actions. So no matter what we do, He still loves us. Because love is Him, He is love.

My prayer for you is that you may get to know God in a deeper way. That through knowing Him more you may feel a love like you have never felt before. That you can understand what true love really is, and your life and the lives of those around you will be changed forever. Because what the love of God touches cannot remain the same.
