No Greater Love

John 15:13 "No greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends."

My prayer is that all would realize that God has done the unthinkable. He has done what no one has ever done or will ever do. What God has done for you through Jesus is the most glorious act of love. This love cannot be understood by those who love the world and all its pleasures. Only those who have been born again can say with a resounding scream, “There is no greater love.” So what about you, the one who is unsure of your eternal destiny, the one who has not yet bought in to the idea that there is only one way to the Father, the one who says I have a pretty good life, the one who says my life stinks how could there be a God with this measure of love. I can tell you how this LOVE that I speak of is true. It has rocked the earth, divided families, cost people their lives, family, friends, wealth, stature, popularity and most of all the Bible teaches it.

This love is no romance novel, or sitcom lust story. The love I speak of is pure, holy, and vibrant. It is delicious and all satisfying. It is full of purpose and hope. It is “patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never ends.” (1 Corinthians 13)
