You are not forgotten
Hello people of God,
We are approaching a season where we are going to see new faces in our midst. While we are praying for God to save the lost, and bring them in, we need to remember something real real important: We are also loved very very much.
You are loved very much by God. Yup. Don't ever forget that. God's love doesn't depend upon what you can give Him or what you can do for Him. He doesn't require anything from you. Though He desires good change in you, He loves you the way you are. God's love is way beyond all that man can provide for you. The bible tells us that nothing can seperate us from the love of Christ: No trouble, persecution or demons can! Please don't trade this love for anything else.
You are loved by us leaders. Remember, God put us in this family of love. As we gear ourselves for new people, don't forget. Each one of you are precious in the sight of us leaders. That's why you get messages and calls if you don't turn up for service. That's why we sometimes scold you. That's why we spend time with you. Don't forget that.
Questions to think about:
1. Are you receiving the love of God and holding on? Or are you simply allowing other loves to fill your heart?
2. Are you showing the love that God has placed in your heart and sharing it with someone? The bible says that you cannot claim to love God, whom you can't see, when you can't love your brother/sister, whom you can see and touch!
3. Do I desire to grow in the love of God? Well if the answer is yes. Then God can and will continue to work in your life. After all, love is the centre of God's heart. God loves. God loves love. God is love. "Of the three greatest that remain: faith, love, hope- the greatest is love" 1 Corinthians 13:13
Grow in love brothers and sisters, cos you are all very very loved.
