God’s Unconditional Love
All of us are, to some degree, the sum total of our loves.
We grow into the image of what we love most. Love by its nature is a creative force – it shapes, molds, conforms, and changes. Our loves dictate our behavior and command our passion. We become like those we love most.
For God, love is not a feeling – it is a responsibility. When he met chaos in the beginning, He displayed confrontational and transformational love.
He so loved the world He brought order out of chaos.
Unconditional Love is pure – no hidden motives, no strings attached. It is full of grace and mercy. It is love that reaches, teaches, knows no limits, and has no restraints.
Unconditional Love is intentional – Jesus’ intent was and is to love us into becoming like Him.
It was not the nails that held Him on the cross – it was His Unconditional Love for all mankind.
Because God is love – it is His very nature – and He has placed a piece of Himself within each of us, all of us have a life-long need for love.
Unconditional Love is the deepest longing of our being.
His love for us is not based on who or what we are, but who He is. Our value comes not from our possessions, our position, nor our prominence – it comes from who possesses us.
His Unconditional Love, will never stop pursuing us, reaching for us, caring for us and patiently waiting for us to be loved unconditionally.
To be loved unconditionally, by a confronting and transformational God until we stand with Him in the likeness of His Son, is God’s supreme desire for each of us.
