LOVE: THE AMAZING MIRACLE OF TRANSFORMATION

Stress is everywhere we turn. Impending difficulty awaits on so many fronts. The conquering tactic for each individual is singular; love.

It seems so strange that the very thing that describes God “loving” the world coupled with the very factor that bursts through our hearts in joy, that love is somehow regarded by many in the church as some sort of a weak and sub-doctrine. When advised to go by it, there seems to be an “Uh-huh. And what else?” sense in the room.

The truth is…the Truth is…that love is the embedded personality of Jesus in God and it’s our central call to follow. For each of us, it is the amazing miracle of transformation. If you want to see life anew and be new, love. Love those who love you and love those who detest you. There is no better element for any of us.

Consider Jesus on the Cross. Brutal. Hideous. Glaringly sickening. And love…God’s vibrant and active love was directing the scene regardless of what enemies assumed. Yet, they were oblivious as to how they were decorating the message of God to be forever remembered.

Celebrate this amazing miracle of transformation that you and I are to grasp. Love is not some silly nicety as some strong believers indicate. It is the driving force of God in your life…in mine. May we find that the Holy Spirit is permitted to bear such gigantic fruit in us as we avail ourselves to bless friend and enemy around us…by our love.
