Love 4
Yes the heavens will explode with the love that can change hearts
Look at everyone you see as an image of Me that will not depart
Everlasting love is the goal you all need to strive for in all that you do
Each situation you find yourself in has been placed before each of you
By the focus of love you will conquer the grave and attain your place in heaven
The glory of the ones that you love will be multiplied seven times seven
Look at the good that surrounds you and pass it on to the lost sheep
It must be the first thing you pick up in the morning and the last thing before sleep
Love is freely given when your heart is in agreement with Mine
Drink in the flows of heaven’s love and your face will be lighted and have a shine
The glories of heaven to all the lost sheep that are in extreme despair
A simple touch to one that is starving for love is what you can share
Every creation has the same needs; you are all alike and deserve the glory
The only difference each of you have is the details of your life story
The need for love is a human condition shared by all and must be fulfilled
So each of you must open your hearts to give and receive love’s thrill
(Psa 90:14 NRSV) Satisfy us in the morning with your steadfast love, so that we may rejoice and be glad all our days.
(Jer 33:11-B NRSV) Give thanks to the LORD of hosts, for the LORD is good, for his steadfast love endures forever!” For I will restore the fortunes of the land as at first, says the LORD.
(John 13:34 – 35 NRSV) 34 – I give you a new commandment, that you love one another. Just as I have loved you, you also should love one another. 35 – By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
(Rom 5:5 NRSV) and hope does not disappoint us, because God’s love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit that has been given to us.
(1 Cor 13:4 – 8A NRSV) 4 – Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or boastful or arrogant 5 – or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 – it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth.
7 – It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8A – Love never ends.
(1 John 4:8 – 9 NRSV) 8 – Whoever does not love does not know God, for God is love. 9 – God’s love was revealed among us in this way: God sent his only Son into the world so that we might live through him.
(1 John 4:10 – 12 NRSV) 10 – In this is love, not that we loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins. 11 – Beloved, since God loved us so much, we also ought to love one another. 12 – No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God lives in us, and his love is perfected in us.
(1 John 4:16 NRSV) So we have known and believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and those who abide in love abide in God, and God abides in them.
(1 John 4:18 NRSV) There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear; for fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not reached perfection in love.
