Walking In Love

Be ye therefore followers of God, as dear children; And walk in love, as Christ also hath loved us, and hath given himself for us an offering and sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling savour (Ephesians 5:1-2).

Galatians 5:22 says love is the fruit of the recreated human spirit, and Romans 5:5 says “the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost.” This is a perfect opportunity to manifest the love of Christ to everyone in your world. Let that flag of love fly high from the castle of your heart to those around you. The Christian life is a life of love freely given us of God. The same gift of love is what you must give this season and at all time.

I sometimes wonder when I notice that some Christians find it hard to walk in love. It ought to be natural for every Christian to walk in love! Because that is the believer’s created value. That is your nature. We are created in the nature of God which is love.

Love makes you give of yourself to others without thinking of what you’ll get in return. Anytime you give to someone wanting something in return, that is a selfish attitude and there is no selfishness in love (1 Corinthians 13:5). It makes you think of others and accept them just as they are without acting to deserve your love. Love is unselfish and doesn’t seek its own. It breaks the barriers of race, ethnicity and social strata. It makes it possible for us to see the beauty in others and appreciate who they are.

Conclusion

Take some time to appreciate those around you and do something definite to show someone the love of Jesus; let someone experience the love, care and touch of Jesus through you today! It is the love of God that transforms people and not His wrath. Let people know your true nature which is love, for God’s love is in you.
