THE NATURE OF LOVING AND GIVING

 
 
John 3:16


"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life." NIV


"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." KJV


God loved us so much that He gave. He gave of Himself because He is love. He put the love He had for us within us, so we have His love in us. It would only be reasonable to conclude that as Christians, our very nature is to give out of love. This does not mean only giving of money and material things. Giving out of love means giving of our time, our talents, our possessions, our wants and needs, and our blood if needed. If we love with the love our God loved us and put within us, we will lovingly give out of all our resources.


Heavenly Father, how can we ever praise You enough for Your great love that gave us the most precious and costly gift in all of eternity? Help us to accept Your love and giving that You long to put within us and be more like you: those who love so much that they give. In the name of Jesus we pray, Amen.

The Good Tale said...

The woman of Rev 12 is now here. She is not a church, she is not Israel, and she is not Mary. She is the prophet like unto Moses and Elijah Matt 17:3, Acts 3:21-23, Luke 1:17 delivering the true word John 1:1 from the wilderness Rev 12:6 to prepare a people for the Lord’s return. God our Father will not put any child of his into a hell fire no matter what their sins. It never entered the heart or mind of God to ever do such a thing Jer7:31, Jer 19:5. Turn your heart to the children of God. A gift is now delivered to the whole world as a witness Matt 24:14. http://minigoodtale.wordpress.com Prove all things.
