How amazing is God's love that despite all my inequities He still loves me. Even though I keep sinning,, turning away and pushing Him away, He never gives up on me. He stays the same, His unfailing love.
Love never fails. It's so hard to love. I struggle constantly with loving those around me, whether with my words, expressions or actions. It's easy to be annoyed and after awhile forget that you should love them. Instead you get caught up by the little things that never used to bother you...but LOVE.
Love is what we're called to do. We love because Jesus loved us. And how great is God's love that He died for us? Love is sacrifice. Sacrificing yourself for family and friends and even those that hate you. How do we love like Jesus. How can we have a heart like Jesus?
Without Jesus we can never do it. We're humans and fall short. We're imperfect and incapable. I need Jesus to help me and remind me to constantly love those around me. Even when its hard. How small is our strength when we falter in times of trouble?
But when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When Jesus comes, all our baggage and burdens, everything we can't do and aren't...it all disappears because Jesus fills us. He makes me complete. He fills the emptiness and void inside of me. It is Jesus and only Jesus who can make me feel whole again!
