God proved His love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, 'I love you.' -- Billy Graham. God's love is very personal toward you. It doesn't matter where you've been, it doesn't matter what you've done, it doesn't matter what you've experienced - God loves you. It doesn't matter what you have thought about yourself or what other people may have said about you - God loves you. This is what God says about you! You are honored, you are precious in His eyes (Isaiah 43:4). Isn't that an amazing thing?

It is the very depth of God’s character to love, and as believers, our character must reflect God’s character. Loving God entails loving others. The two are inextricably bound—you cannot love God and NOT love others. In fact, God’s love does not limit us to loving only those who love us back, our family or close friends, or others who belong to the body of believers. 

Why would Jesus command us to do such a thing? Because that is exactly what God has done for us. Romans 5:8 says, “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”  And to make sure we truly understand what that means, Paul the Apostle emphasizes in Romans 5:10, “For if, while we were God’s enemies, we were reconciled to him through the death of his Son, how much more, having been reconciled, shall we be saved through his life!”

God loved us when we were not only unlovely, but when we were His enemies. And it was this love—His sacrificial love—that saved us in the midst of our sinfulness.

Since the Lord loved us in this way, so we too, as His followers, are to love our neighbor (the sinful, unlovely, and enemy) in this way as well.

The good news is that whatever God commands, He enables us to do.

For those who are new to their faith, prayer can seem daunting and overwhelming. How do I talk to God? What does that even mean? Are there things I’m supposed to say? Are there things I’m not allowed to say? Is there a set prayer or do I just make one up? Even for those who have been in a relationship with the Lord for many years, prayer can still seem challenging for a whole host of reasons. It can get stale, feel useless, fall to the wayside, or just seem to lose its power. So what do we do when we need new words to pray? How we can we revitalize our prayer lives? Here are some ideas!

A relationship with God is the most life-giving relationship possible. If you’ve never done so, we encourage you to invite God into your life. If you did at one time but the relationship has gone stale, we encourage you to renew that invitation. When God sees you moving toward him, he finds you and the rest of the relationship between you will come naturally. This process of inviting God into your life and having him meet you may seem odd and confusing, but you’ll just have to trust us on it until you experience it for yourself. The Bible says, “Commit to the Lord whatever you do, and he will establish your plans.” (Proverbs 16:3, NIV) I believe it’s crucial to develop the good habit of inviting God into all of our plans from day one, whatever they may be. God absolutely loves to take ordinary people and use them to accomplish the extraordinary. But one of the prerequisites is walking hand-in-hand with Him. Whatever your day holds, consult God first and foremost. He is the very best of counselors! Stay

Forgiveness is a huge stumbling block for so many, but we all are called upon to forgive in our lives. Some things are minor and easy to forgive...other things are so egregious, that it is only through God’s grace and strength that we are able to forgive. If we choose to live with unforgiveness, it can impact us emotionally, mentally, physically and spiritually. Praying sincerely for those who hurt, betrayed, or offended you does do Kingdom wonders! It aligns your heart to the Father's heart of mercy. ❤❤❤ #spokenfromexperience

God doesn't fall off of His throne because you're going through a rough season. Instead of being led by emotion, trust in His sovereignty. Emotions change. God doesn’t.

Jesus made clear that God is not like a reluctant neighbor who needs to be wheedled, cajoled and enticed to give something. He gives eagerly, gladly, willingly. As Jesus said, "Ask, and it shall be given; seek, and you shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you," (Matthew 7:7, Luke 11:9 KJV).

Through our faith in Christ, God put his love into our hearts (Romans 5:5). This love has been on display in a multitude of ways in our marriage. What God desires for us is better than what we desire for ourselves. As Christians, when we come to God in the brokenness of our sin and ask him to save us by faith he does! But he does not leave us as we are. God shapes us and molds us into the image of His Son, Jesus Christ (Romans 8:29-30). While the outcome is always good, sometimes the means by which God uses the Holy Spirit to make us more like Jesus can be hard. It’s through building a relationship with Him do we understand His will for our lives, which enables us to have access to its greatness by operating from a place of victory! From that victory, we are standing on our faith in God. As a result, we’re able to truly love unconditionally as Christ does us.
