But God commendeth His love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5: 8 A new season the Lord God has me in is about more depth in His character of love, joy, peace and hope day by day. A beloved sister in Jesus Christ shared with me recently that my frustration is often misplaced. It is often the enemy that robs me, clouds my view of God's true heart and power. Everyone is made in His image---how He must love every single soul even in our sin. He wants me to have His heart, the highest virtue, for all, even those that I have to dig deeper to understand or relate to. He wants me to simply and completely love everyone through His eyes. I have received love when I didn't deserve it. I have been forgiven when world would have said take offense. I must give no less in return or I haven't really begun to be transformed to the image of His Son, Jesus. "Love means to love that which is unlovable, or it is no virtue at all; forgiving means to pardon that which is unpardonable, or it is no virtue at all----and to hope means hoping when things are hopeless, or it is no virtue at all." G. K. Chesterton More on hope next time...AGAPE dear saint on the journey with the Lord God Almighty!
To God be all the Glory,
