When you truly love someone, you want to please and honor them by the way you act. How you treat someone shows whether or not you really care about them.

If we truly love Christ, we will want to please and honor Him by the way we live. Even the thought of hurting Him or bringing disgrace to His name will be abhorrent to us.

True love is an act of the will—a conscious decision to do what is best for the other person instead of ourselves.

I am convinced the greatest act of love we can ever perform for people is to tell them about God’s love for them in Christ.

When Christ’s love fills our hearts, it puts selfishness on the run.

The mystery of God’s love would not be a mystery if we knew all the answers.

God has not changed. His laws have not changed. He is still a God of love and mercy But He is also a God of righteousness and judgment.

God is sending forth His message of love, but you must tune in. You must be willing to listen and to receive His message and then to obey it.

Don’t make the mistake of thinking that because God is love everything is going to be sweet, beautiful, and happy and that no one will be punished for his sins . . . God’s love provided the cross of Jesus, by which we can have forgiveness and cleansing.
