(Eph 5:2 NKJV) And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.
Love is the ultimate gift that we’re given and that we can also give.
Love conquers all. Period.
Sometimes this is very hard for us to comprehend. We like to handle things our own way and make sure people know how we feel and what we think. But God wants us to love. He wants us to show people who He is by the way we love.
Love truly overcomes all evil. Think about this; if we speak to someone with an angry tone, how often does that person return our words with kindness? Not often, right?
But, what about if we speak to someone with kindness and sincerity? More often than not, we will get a softer response than if we spoke to someone harshly.
When I was in Bible College, one of the instructors made a statement that has stuck with me ever since. He said “Nobody really cares how much we know until they know how much we care”.
We need to make sure we’re loving people, not just showing them how much we know or how spiritual we are.
Make it a point to treat people with love and then take notice of how they react to you.
