“This is my command:
Love each other.”
John 15:17
Agape.
Unconditional love.
A pure love that
causes a consuming passion for the well-being
of others regardless
of the cost to the person.
Tomorrow we celebrate
CHRISTmas around the globe.
What a great
demonstration of God’s love.
Years ago a
songwriter expressed it this way –
“Love was when God
became a man.”
Jesus said this
concerning love:
Greater love
has no one than
this:
to
lay down
one's
life
for one's friends.
John 5:13
Jesus was, quite
literally, born to die.
He knew that and He willingly
laid down His life for you and I – His friends.
Let that true meaning
of CHRISTmas sink into your spirit.
Jesus demonstrated
that unconditional love through His death on the cross.
It was made available
to you and me by His resurrection.
We can be His ‘carriers’
of unconditional agape love by the power of the Holy Spirit working in us.
This CHRISTmas don’t
just display His love with a manger scene in your home.
Display it to others
through His love in your heart expressed by your actions.
