Love

Day 2. Woohoo. We're looking at heaps of things about God... BUT, if we had to choose just one word to sum up who God is, that word would have to be "love". God doesn't just choose to love us or act in love toward us, but He IS love. Love comes from Him, and we will never understand or experience what real love is apart from Him. You can't separate God and love because love is who He is. This means that everything He does comes from love. His creation, His power, His calling on our lives—it is all an expression of His love for us. But the greatest way for us to understand God's love is through the cross. Before we even considered God, while we were still sinners, He gave His one and only son Jesus to die for us, because He loved us so much. God's love is not weak but God's love is unconditional (nothing can change it), it is unfailing (it never fails us), it is powerful (it defeats fear, sin & death), it surpasses understanding (we can't wrap our heads around it) and nothing can ever separate us from it. As you read today, if what you think about God doesn't line up with love, then maybe it's time to form a new picture. Let these words from scripture be the foundation of who you know Him to be.
