T.O.D.A.Y.’S ENCOURAGEMENT for July 11th, 2002

T.O.D.A.Y. Ministries

Good Morning!

Today, I want to talk some more about "love".  The kind of love that Jesus commanded all Christians to have for each other, (John 13:34 and 1 John 3:23).

The Lord will never command us to do something that we can't do.  Whatever He TELLS us to do, He will ENABLE us to do.

Loving someone does not mean that you like everything they say and do.  We don't always like or approve of our children's conversation or behavior, but that doesn't keep us from loving them.  God does not always like or approve of what we say and do, but that doesn't stop Him from loving us.

To love someone, with God's kind of love, is to see that person as valuable and precious. After all, the same Jesus that lives in you, also lives in every other Christian.  Let me share with you the words from one of my songs>>>>>>

                        Love does not come just because we agree
                        Love is the way I see you and you see me.
                        Love is not based on the way that we feel;
                        Love is a decision of our will.

                        So, I may not always agree with you;
                        with what you say or what you do.
                        But, there is one thing I can choose to do;
                        I can choose to see Jesus in you. **

Stay tuned..........there is more coming tomorrow!

Have a Blessed Day!!                        In His Love,       Luanne**taken from "Luanne's Songs"
