Love is the answer
For the love of Christ controls and urges and impels us.
2 Corinthians 5:14 - Amplified Bible
God's love is the answer! It is the answer to every problem you've been having with inability to forgive and with resentment. It also rescues you from envy and extracts you from whatever strife you got yourself into. God's love came into your heart on the day you accepted Christ as your Saviour. Allow God's love to rise up and overflow from within. God's love can have controlling influence in your life. It can displace the destructive soulish passions that once controlled you. It can bring God's creative, healing power onto the scene of your life. Rom.5:5.
"I will love this person," you will be able to say by God's love, "no matter how they are behaving right now." This is what God does. It is with His love that you can love. God's love is not based on an emotional reaction. God's love is based on a decision to love. When you were born again the Holy Spirit poured out the love of God in your heart. You now have the power to walk in love. You can decide to walk in love and the Spirit of God will aid you and uphold you in that decision. By determining to walk constantly in God's love His love comes to hold first place of influence in your life.
Yield to God's love and you will begin to see beyond the failings of others. You will start to believe to find beauty in others and possibilities for good in their future. And guess what? You are likely to find that people you view through God's love begin to acknowledge that God's love is real and present in our world today. Open your Bible to 1 Corinthians 13 and reflect on the character of God's love.
Look what God's love can do in you!
