LOVE
Do you know the great command in God's word?
Matthew 22:38-40 NKJV
[38] This is the first and great commandment. [39] And the second is like it: ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ [40] On these two commandments hang all the Law and the Prophets.”
The experience of the love of God is the best thing that happened to mankind. Love is defined in the bible in 1 Corinthians 13.
I Corinthians 13:4-8 NKJV
[4] Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; [5] does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; [6] does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; [7] bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. [8] Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.
This is the kind that originates from God. God tells us in His word that love is fulfils all the commandments in the Law and the Prophets. We cannot love on our own. Let us pray to God for grace to love according to His will.
