Life’s Nuggets For Living: God is Love

” For God so love ❤️ the world 🌎 that He gave His One and Only Son”.
Kingdom principle of Love relationship requires that those who # Choose To Love ❤️ # must be willing to # Demonstrate# their love.
God is Love and in Him there is no Darkness at all. He being the Source and Origin of True Agape Love ❤️, has Demonstrated to us how to # Practically Show Love especially to the # Unlovable #.
So, how do you love those who you have challenges with?
 Those who are constantly seeking your downfall?
Those you know very well hate you and are out to hurt you?
Jesus Christ not only taught us how to love , but He also demonstrated Practically how to truly love 💖 those who poses a challenge to our love Nature.
A. Love ❤️ them by and through the Principle of Wisdom.  Love is a Character and Nature but requires the application of Wisdom in its exercise.
To love ❤️ requires that you operate in Wisdom  – For wisdom helps you to ” Know How” to do things not just what to do.
B. Love ❤️ them by and through the Principle of Prayer.
Prayer positions your heart to hear God in your exercise of love ❤️ Practically.  It helps you be free in your Spirit and ensure that bitterness doesn’t clog your heart.
For as you pray for them, you have control over their actions in the spirit which that makes you feel hurt. Their actions towards you if not controlled in the spirit may impact your heart ♥️ thereby affecting # How You Love#.
C. Love ❤️ them Altruistically.  Your motive must remain for their best interest NOT # Their Response #. Altruistic love means that you are loving ❤️ them without Expectations of favorable outcomes but you are loving them irrespective of , however, you choose to love because it is your Nature.
D. Love ❤️ them through and by the principle of Hope and Faith.
This allows you to see into the Future ” Who for the Joy that was set before Him, endured the Cross ✝️ and despised the Shame”.
Jesus loved by Faith and Hope. He saw that those who are shouting crucify Him will have the opportunity to hear the Gospel in Acts chapter 2 – 6. And He could love ❤️ them irrespective of their actions in that moment.
” When Faith & Hope governor’s how you love ❤️, you will love Sacrificially like Jesus “.
E. Love ❤️ them by and through the principle of Truth.
This allows you to # Stay true to yourself and to them. Loving those who poses a challenge requires that you # Acknowledge that Truth. # It is hard and humanely challenging to love ❤️ them#.
If you don’t speak that Truth to yourself, you will struggle with loving them; Because you are denying your Truth and your Humanity.
Stay true to them, because you must learn to acknowledge your feelings.  Notice that I say # Acknowledge your Feelings # not be controlled by your Feelings.  Those are two different things.
Loving by this principle demands that you speak the Truth to them when it is required.  You cannot love truly in lies. Or hiding your feelings.
Stay tuned for continuation.
Resolve to be an amazing Helper 👏 to someone else this year.
Shalom.
