LOVING IS LIVING: DIVINE LOVE – GIVES A MORE EXCELLENT WAY!<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Stop struggling to love. You are not born of God to survive or be a survival in love. You are born of God to thrive, blossom and colour your worlds in love. We are born of God in Christ Jesus by the WORD, to radiate His love shared lavishly in our hearts – human spirit, by the Holy Spirit that dwells in us. For GOD IS LOVE and as such, LOVE Is of God. And LOVING is LIVING.<\/span><\/p>\n

The most excellent way to enjoy and express God’s love, is the resolve to be the love GIVER\u00a0 than to DEMAND for love. Genuine LOVE GIVES, it doesn’t DEMANDS, for it’s more BLESSED to GIVE than to RECEIVE – Acts 20:35. For God so LOVE, He GAVE – John 3:16.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

And until you resolve to be the love GIVER, rather than the one DEMANDING for love, you will struggle to express love in an EXCELLENT way. And the EXCELLENT way of genuine living is emboldened in DIVINE LOVE. And it WORTH it beyond all human reasoning.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Beloved, let us LOVE one another: FOR LOVE IS OF GOD; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. 8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; FOR GOD IS LOVE. 9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might LIVE through him . . . 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. GOD IS LOVE; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him. 17 HEREIN IS OUR LOVE MADE PERFECT, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: BECAUSE AS HE IS, SO ARE WE IN THIS WORLD. 18 There is no FEAR IN LOVE; BUT PERFECT LOVE CASTETH OUT FEAR: BECAUSE FEAR HATH TORMENT. He that feareth is not made perfect in love . . .”<\/em> 1John 4:7-21.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
