Love

EASTER is almost here. What better example of LOVE than that of the reason we celebrate Easter? As Jesus died on the cross, the Father's LOVE for a sinful world spoke loudly to the world. The scripture: John 3:16,"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life" voiced the magnitude of the Father's love, for He gave His only Son to give His life for all who would take Him at His word and receive Him.

Perhaps we should delve into the explanation of LOVE. In another scripture, we are given the true picture of what LOVE is: Check out 1 Corinthians 13. The first 3 verses tell us what love is not, i.e., a special tongue, voice of prophecy, a knowledge of mysteries, intellect, all faith, supplying the poor to meet their needs, sacrifice our bodies, all these services are of no avail, if we have not LOVE. Turn the coin over and this is LOVE! long suffering, kindness, without envy, pride, or selfishness. LOVE is not easily provoked, and thinketh no evil.

1 Corinthinas 13 goes on to describe love: "It rejoiceth in the truth; Bears all things; trusts, believeth all things,hopeth all things, and last but not least, endureth all things." And this LOVE never faileth...All else will not hold a candle to LOVE, another "STEP TO SECURITY!. We are going higher each time we take a step and add these steps to our daily Christian growth. "Ask and it shall be given to you, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened unto you!" Luke 11:9.

Are you climbing with us the STEPS to SECURITY?
