1 John 4:10-11 

Posted on by Just broken

This is love: not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

This is where we as Christians often fall down, where self-righteousness, look down your nose, I’m glad I’m not like that, Pharisees like behavior creeps into our actions and love. I’m very grateful Christ doesn’t think like that.
We are to love like Christ loves us. No excuses, no borders, no boundaries, no class distinctions.
Matthew 25:31-43
Read it. If you don’t have a bible handy, Google it.
Love unconditionally like Christ loves us. Give unconditionally even if it hurts like it hurt Christ. Praise like Christ even if it seems as dark as it did for Him.
Love. Give. Praise.

I Love The Father, Son and Holy Spirit and the blessings He has poured into my life. I pray that I live a life that glorifies Him in all I do, but I fail every day, many, many, many times. I have come here through brokenness, a trail of pain and broken promises that I've created through my self centeredness, self will and arrogance. For those I've hurt, please forgive me for what I did. Those things that I remember I am truly sorry I did them. I wish I could undo them. I can't. I use these lessons as motivation to be a builder, to take those experiences and hopefully keep someone else out of their own similar experiences. I love my wife, my children, my family, my friends, my strangers, and those the world would like to dismiss as an unfortunate error messing up worldly perfection. I get frustrated with all of the above too, for I am broken, not like God. Lord, give me your wisdom, your patience, and knowledge of your will for me and the strength to carry that out in all I do. I believe we have work to do while we are here and need to be actively engaged in allowing God to work through us. A Christian is someone who does what The Father, Son and Holy Spirit calls them to do, a builder not a taker, a conduit not a pinnacle, humble and serving. Micah 6:8 Matthew 25:31-46
