Love
“
As a father has compassion on his children, so the LORD has compassion on those who fear him;”-
Psalm 103:13that was the verse of the day for today.
compassion. it's love, empathy, care. for Jesus saw the thousands who are unfed, he felt compassion towards them.
this verse, telling us, that God is gonna care for us, is gonna love us and help us through if we are his children.
how to be his children?
to fear him la, obviously.
but that fear is not merely talking about being afraid, or scared. This is one of my favourite verses in the bible, truly talking about what it is to follow God, truly illustrating what it means to be a christian, or in layman's terms, what God requires.
"To love him with all your heart, with all your understanding and with all your strength, and to love your neighbor as yourself is more important than all burnt offerings and sacrifices."
Mark 12:33 (NIV)
it's just love. It is the most important thing. Jesus even called it the "2 most important commandments" (love God n love your neighbours). quit thinking that you can't go back to God. Erase that thought of a merit system, dump the idea of rituals making us christians.It's not.
it's love.Labels: christian-bboy, ilovemebutGodlovesmemore
