Love

"Love never fails                        1 Corinthians 13:8      NKJV

Just meditate on these words for a moment or two:

"Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;  6does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8Love never fails".  v 4 -8

These words describe Jesus totally. If we had spent years with Him, we would never be able to comprehend the love that Jesus has for each of us. Just think of where you fit into these words. You may have let Jesus down over and over but, His love never fails. He is totally fixated with you, this is why He took your place and your sin on the cross.

If He feel this way about each of us, don't you think that we should feel the same way? Imagine what it would be like if we lived this way all the time, especially when people are rude or nasty towards us. Then of course, there are those who gossip about us; point the finger and always seem to want to hurt us. Imagine if we responded to them with the words above.

This is being Jesus to whoever we meet, live with, work with or associate. Look at the difference this could make to situations. People want to be this way, they just don't know how to be. We hold the blue print. Jesus lives in our heart and by acting this way to whoever, they will know that there is something about us, but what?

We know that it is Jesus within us but they don't and we have the wherewithal to be able to introduce them to Jesus. Imagine getting to heaven and someone Jesus has cast aside because He doesn't know them, walks up to you and says, 'Why didn't you tell me about Jesus?' That would be totally shame. Don't ever be in that position. We don't know how it will be in heaven, but, that could happen.

Show people Jesus; show them these words and lead them to know Jesus

If you don't know Jesus or, have fallen away, why not say this prayer right now:

'Lord Jesus, I have sinned and I ask you to forgive me and be my Lord and Saviour. Please come into my heart, fill me with Your Spirit and give me a brand new start today.

In Jesus' Name. Amen'
