True Love…

John 15:13  Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.  Consider these lyrics…
He left the Splendor of Heaven
Knowing His destiny
Was the lonely hill of Golgotha
there to lay down His life for me.  If that isn’t love the ocean is dry there’s no stars in the sky
and the sparrow can’t fly if that isn’t love then Heavens a myth
there’s no feeling like this if that isn’t love.  What a tremendous song! What a wonderful truth!  Tomorrow is good Friday.  You and I are instructed to love the Lord and love the saints.  When we genuinely love God we love who He loves.  Think about this verse… Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.  The songwriter said, “I am so glad God saves ol sinners.”  It was a happy day in my life when I realized the sinner was me!  And of some have compassion,  making a difference!  You’d be surprised at the difference we  could make in the lives of others if we would allow the love of God to be shed abroad in our hearts.  Jesus is coming.  Take time to share His great love with someone today! Lord, we need you to help us see the urgency of sharing the gospel with others.  Lord, I remember well those that loved me to Christ, help us to do the same for others. Amen.  Pastor
