LOVE

God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him.
1 John 4:9


We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love. God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God lives in them.
1 John 4:16

Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen.
1 John 4:20


     So, my brothers and sisters, you must understand how important and powerful love is.  You must understand that our God, our Father, our Creator is love pure and divine that transcends this physical world which he has built to teach and teach out of love for us.  Return that love by loving others...all others as his creation, for he creates nothing but out of his divine and perfect love.  Love shall change and transfigure this world, not hate and war.  Have faith, have love.  It is a lesson which we learn together.  We shall overcome the hate of this world for our Father has ordained it to be so. He is coming, and we are preparing the way.  Be of great joy.  Spread the Good News...the Kingdom of God is at hand.
     A man that I respect very much is Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr, the American civil rights leader.  I grew up listening to him speak...how powerful, how motivating, how full of faith in our Father, our Lord Jesus.  Keep this within your spirit. Reverend King said, "A man who believes in nothing worth dying for, is a life not worth living."  He believed in spreading God's love through non-violence.  Believe you me, it was tough so often.  God made saints and servants of so many people at this period in time in this country.  They inspired others to do the same, to question their hate. We must be saints and servants of our Father to spread the Good News of his Kingdom and his Love.  May you always be aware of the  love of our Father and his Son, our Lord Jesus, and the presence of the holy spirit always be present within and without you.
