Love is an action word, and actions are to be seen and not heard. Can your love for the Lord be seen, or is it just something you talk about. Jesus said "If you love me keep my commandments", here our love is revealed by what we do, not just by what we say. God so loved that He gave, He forgave, He sacrificed, and He saved. What are the actions of your love?
Christ is the embodiment of pure love.The apostle Paul prayed for the love of Christ to dwell in our hearts by faith. That we may be able to comprehend, the breath, and length, and depth, and height, of Christ love for us, which passes all understanding. It is an inseparable love a love in spite of. The love of God is a reflection of God's heart flowing through Christ, one spirit, one heart, one mind and one love. When Jesus died on the cross, He could have felt two kinds of love. One was for the Father as Jesus did His will. The other was Jesus' love for all people. Because of the love coming from the Father and his desire to love each one of us, He was able to endure the pain and shame of death on a cross.
As we draw upon Jesus' unselfish love, we too can better love others. Jesus wants us to love not just with words we say, but also in the things we do. Let your love be a action from the heart not just words from your mouth.
