Proof of Your Love

2 Corinthians 8:24

When you tell someone, you love them, what’s the proof of your statement? How can others tell, whether or not your words are truth, or deception? We are living in a time, when words are easily thrown around, as if they hold no value. While many use words to deceive, and manipulate others, those who are true to God, and His word, are wise enough to not say things with deceitful intentions. What’s in a man’s heart, will be revealed more through his actions, not his words alone.

Undeserving

I don’t deserve your love, but I’m thankful for it.
I don’t deserve your grace, but I’m grateful for it.
I don’t deserve your mercy, but I’m humbled by it.
I don’t deserve your protection, but I’m kept by it.
I don’t deserve your peace, but it keeps me still.
I don’t deserve your rod, but it keeps me in line.
I don’t deserve your word, but it saved me.
I don’t deserve your favor, but I’m blessed by it.

The Get-Along Gang

1 Peter 3:8-13

Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous:

Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing; knowing that ye are thereunto called, that ye should inherit a blessing.

10 For he that will love life, and see good days, let him refrain his tongue from evil, and his lips that they speak no guile:

11 Let him eschew evil, and do good; let him seek peace, and ensue it.

12 For the eyes of the Lord are over the righteous, and his ears are open unto their prayers: but the face of the Lord is against them that do evil.

13 And who is he that will harm you, if ye be followers of that which is good?

Consider God

Psalm 93

Mountains peak, and valleys stretch far and wide. But, if you think that’s something, consider God. Oceans run deep, and great waves flow continuously. But, if you think that’s something, consider God. The sun shines bright from millions of miles away, and the moon, the same at night. But, if you think that’s something, consider God. The sky is filled with countless stars, that twinkle and sometimes shoot across the vastness of the heavens. But, if you think that’s something, consider God. Man and woman were made with an anatomy and systems more complicated than the space shuttle. But, if you think that’s something, consider God.

Our God, is awesome. He created the heavens, and the earth. He sustains and maintains His creation by His very word. It is a good thing, to give thanks and praise to the God of all creation.
