HOW CAN HE

"The LORD hath appeared of old unto me, saying, Yea, I have loved thee with an everlasting love: therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn thee."

Jeremiah 31:3
King James Version

There is a wonderful Christian lady who is always giving and doing things for others. However, one of her sons is very hateful and rude to people. We might wonder how her son can be like that when his mother is a very nice and friendly person?

Think about it! We have a loving and compassionate Saviour yet there are times when we get upset and say words and do things that hurt our Saviour. May God have mercy on us. How dare we point the finger of guilt at others when there are times when we hurt others.

How can our Saviour love us so much when we hurt Him? How can He keep forgiving us? It is because He loves us unconditionally. We need to love others unconditionally just as He loves us.

One of my favorite hymns is "I Love You With The Love Of The Lord". Do we love others with the love of the Lord?

"I Love you with the love of the Lord Yes I Love you with the love of the Lord I can see in you the glory of my King and I Love you with the love of the Lord."

Let's make a special effort to love people unconditionally as Jesus has commanded us to love others. It is not an option for us to love others unconditionally. I love You, Jesus. Thank You for dying on the cross for my sins and for all You have done for me.
