God's Love Post

ENJOY LIFE

All of you should be united in spirit, sympathizing with one another,

loving each other as of one household, compassionate and courteous

tenderhearted and humble.

Never return evil for evil, criticism for criticism, insult for insult, but

on the contrary blessing, praying for their , happiness,well-being,

protection, truly pitying and loving them. For know that to this you

have been called, that you may yourselves inherit a blessing from God

that you may obtain a blessing as heirs, bringing blessings, happiness and

protection.

 For let him or her who wants to enjoy life and see good days keep his or

her tongue free from speaking evil and his or her lips from guile, treachery

or deceit.

Let them turn away from wickedness and shun it, and let them search for

peace, (harmony: undisturbedness from fears, agitating passions, moral

conflicts) and seek it eagerly. (Do not merely desire peaceful relations

with God, with your fellowmen and with yourself, but pursue, go after

the peaceful relations!)

For the eyes of the Lord are upon the righteous (those who are upright

and in right standing with God) and His ears are attentive to their prayer.

But the face of the Lord is against those who practice evil (to oppose them,

to frustrate and defeat them).

Now who is there to hurt you if you are zealous followers of that which  is

good?

But even in case you should suffer for the sake of righteousness, you are

blessed. Do not dread or be afraid of their threats, nor be disturbed by

their opposition.

(I. Peter 3. 8-14).

POINTS FOR MEDITATION AND PRAISE

1) In the unity of the Holy Spirit we can all live in peace and harmony

as brothers and sisters.

2) Our attitude ought to be the attitude of Jesus Christ. We  show care,

compassion and act humbly with each other.

3) The way to respond to criticism, insult or attack is with blessing and

prayer. When someone attacks us let us respond with the love bestowed

on us by Jesus Christ through the Holy Spirit. Loving those who do not

love you or those who despise you is feasible through the Holy Spirit.

This love is super-human and super-natural. This is what we need.

4) The peace, harmony and good of all we desire can only be achieved

when we respond with God’s love, this super-natural AGAPE love which

is bestowed on us by Jesus Christ though the Holy Spirit!

THIS IS THE WAY OF PEACE FOR THE ENTIRE WORLD!

PRAISE THE LORD JESUS CHRIST FOR HIS MAGNIFICIENT GIFT!
