A HEART OF LOVE

“When Jesus therefore saw her weeping, and the Jews also weeping which came with her, he groaned in the spirit, and was troubled, And said, Where have ye laid him? They said unto him, Lord, come and see. Jesus wept.  Then said the Jews, Behold how he loved him!”

John 11:33-36

King James Version

Jesus has a heart of love, unconditional love.  Charles W. Fry wrote a beautiful hymn about Jesus “The Lily of the Valley”.  “He all my grief has taken, and all my sorrows borne; In temptation He’s my strong and mighty tow’r; I’ve all for Him forsaken, and all my idols torn From my heart and now He keeps me by His pow’r. Though all the world forsake me, and Satan tempt me sore, Through Jesus I shall safely reach the goal.”

If we say we are a Christian, then we need to act like a Christian and talk like a Christian.  We should love one another unconditionally just as Jesus loves us.  May God help us to let others see and hear the unconditional love of Jesus in us.  Always remember, when we are kind and loving to others, we are being kind and loving to Jesus and when we are not kind and loving to others, we are hurting Jesus and breaking His heart.
