Love like that
Written by jabull on July 11, 2008Today wraps up a long week of Vacation Bible Experience for the kids here at Capital Christian. There have been hundreds of kids from the church as well as the community. I ran across the following passage in Ephesians chapter 5 of the Message Bible this morning:
Watch what God does, and then you do it, like little children who learn proper behavior from their parents. Mostly what God does is love you. Keep company with him and learn a life of love. Observe how Christ loved us. His love was not cautious but extravagant. He didn’t love in order to get something from us but to give everything of himself to us. Love like that.
It’s all too easy to get caught up in everything going on and miss out on what God is doing in lives via his ability to simply love us for who we are.
