God's love is the answer
The love of God has been poured out in our hearts and still floods them through the agency of the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
Romans 5:5 - Wuest's Expanded Translation
A response today via my web site simply read, "I am jealous of everyone." I replied, "To seek a cure for your problem seek a greater revelation and presence of the love of God in your life." As Christians we know we should be living loving lives. However, often we attempt this by loving out of our own strength. The truth is, you don't love by knowing you should love, by knowing what words love says or by knowing what works love does. Truly loving as God loves comes by having His love in us.
Our hearts have no source from themselves of God's love; God's love has to be put in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. God's love has to be received. Often we've been trying to make ourselves loving instead of positioning ourselves to receive God's love. We have to receive His love in our hearts by God's Spirit. Often we've tried to love out of our strength, what we should do is love in the power of God's love. His love is given to us by His Spirit.
God's love comes to you by the Holy Spirit. God's love comes when you give it an opening. You live in love truly when you give God's love liberty to flow freely from your heart. Instead of trying to work up love, let in love. A wonderful, opportune time for this is when you get wholeheartedly into worshipping God and fellowship with God in the Spirit. Receive the love of God as your heart reaches out to God in adoration. As the love of God flows through your heart the words and works of His love will be revealed in you.
More of God will mean more of His love!
