Love is a fruit in season at all times, and within reach of every hand.
Quote By Mother Theresa
1 John 4:9-11
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. 10 This is real love–not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins. 11 Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other.

I have learned that what we have done for ourselves alone dies
with us. What we have done for others and God's Kingdom remains and
is immortal.

Love one another deeply, As Christ Loves You Deeply!
1 Peter 1:18-25
Your life is a journey you must travel with a deep consciousness of God. It cost God plenty to get you out of that dead-end, empty-headed life you grew up in. He paid with Christ’s sacred blood, you know. He died like an unblemished, sacrificial lamb. And this was no afterthought. Even though it has only lately–at the end of the ages–become public knowledge, God always knew he was going to do this for you. It's because of this sacrificed Messiah, whom God then raised from the dead and glorified, that you trust God, that you know you have a future in God. 22-25 Now that you've cleaned up your lives by following the truth, love one another as if your lives depended on it. Your new life is not like your old life. Your old birth came from mortal sperm; your new birth comes from God's living Word. Just think: a life conceived by God himself! That's why the prophet said, The old life is a grass life, its beauty as short-lived as wildflowers; Grass dries up, flowers droop, God's Word goes on and on forever. This is the Word that conceived the new life in you.

Genuine Love Is A Love That Serves Others 1st!
Genuine Love Is Always Consistently And Forever: U-B4-Me!
“Honour and glory are indeed due to God and to Him alone, but He will accept neither of them if they be not preserved in the honey of love. Love is sufficient of itself; it pleases by itself and on its own account. Love seeks no cause beyond itself and no fruit. It is its own fruit, its own enjoyment.
I love because I love; I love that I may love. Love is a great thing provided it recurs to its beginning, returns to its origin, and draws always from that Fountain which is perpetually in flood. Of all the feelings and affections of the soul, love is the only one by which the creature, though not on equal terms, is able to respond to the Creator and to repay what it has received from Him.
For when God loves us He desires nothing but to be loved. He loves for no other reason, indeed, than that He may be loved, knowing that by their love itself those who love Him are blessed.”
Quote By: Bernard of Clairvaux
He that carries bitterness to bed with him will find the devil creeping between the sheets.
Quote By: William Secher
It is the way of our culture to hold grudges, to look for ways to to pay back evil for evil. Adding bitterness to a heated relational bridge will create a fire and burn an overpass that you will one day need to cross back over. Kingdom Wisdom Says: Lay the cross of Jesus Christ over the gap and go the way of discomfort, walk the path of His sacrifice and experience the power of His resurrected love, which is able to grow you through the heat to the other side of His glory.
Quote By: Kimberlymac
Our Culture Says: Me 1st! Our Kingdom Says: Salvation Is Sacrifice! Put The Sacrifice Back In Your Salvation, This Is Not Culturally Correct But It Is God's Righteousness At Its Best! Just Do It! Build A Bridge With The Cross Of Christ And Cross Over Culturalism To The Kingdom Side!
Quote By: Kimberlymac
Just thinking: Everyone is different. God made it so! God never intended for us to judge others by what we have known or experienced, He wants us to stretch our tent pegs past our personal cultural-comfort zone and grow through life together with Him.
Quote By: Kimberlymac
When circumstances seem impossible, when all signs of grace in you seem at their lowest ebb, when temptation is fiercest, when love and joy and hope seem well-nigh extinguished in your heart, then rest, without feeling and without emotion, in the Father's faithfulness.
Quote By D. Tryon
