today was Spark sharing
i was suppose to share on the Gospel of John 15 : 7-12
so i decided to reflect on it and this is what i shared about.......
“This is my commandment: love one another as I have loved you. No one can have greater love than to lay down his life for his friends…”
(JOHN 15: 12)
Jesus kept to those words of his; in fact, He died for us while we were still sinners and not his friends. I guess the word ‘love’ has been very loosely used today. I would like to provide some new insights to his highly over-used word and its true meaning which can be found in scripture. Firstly, what are the few criterion that defines ‘love’? As Jesus has shown, love is no use without any action. His death on the cross is the greatest act of love ever displayed by any human being. This love He has for us made Him chose to die for us and by this act of love; we have all been redeemed from sin and death. Love means to share, to bear and to dare unconditionally. This also means dying to oneself and giving things up to someone else. My brothers and sisters, the call of Jesus is simply to love till it hurts.
if everyone love each other there would not be wars and fightings and peace all around ....
i guess im not loving enough since i still do fight will my brothers occasionally
however i try to improve myself i must always see christ in others
the good in others ... love starts at home love everyone despite their selfishness , i guess this is what is meant by love till it hurts.......
