Love is Simple

All of us have been searching for a definition of true love. The Bible puts it down so clearly (1 Corinthians 13):

"Love is patient and kind. Love is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude. It does not demand its own way. It is not irritable, and it keeps no record of being wronged. It does not rejoice about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out. Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance."

And the Bible puts it so clearly that we are to love everyone.

In 1 John 4:

"Dear friends, let us love one another for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love."

Lemme challenge you all to do something, love someone who has wronged you. Yes, it may either be easy or hard...but whatever it is...God has been doing that for us...

We repeatedly sin and hurt Him time after time, yet He still loves us...and he gave the ultimate sacrifice by dying for our sins (THIS HAS A LOT OF IMPLICATIONS, TOO MANY TO BE MENTIONED HERE)

Yup, that's the simple message I would like to bring across for now. As for how to love those who wrong us, why not start by keeping no record of their wrongs :D
