Love Changes Everything

How to make God's main motivation your own

Are you willing and ready to become a student of the love walk? If so, you need to know that it requires education and commitment.

We must have our minds renewed to what love really is. Love is tangible; it is not just a spiritual thing that cannot be seen or touched. It is evident to everyone who comes in contact with it. Love is a decision we make - a decision to treat people the way Jesus would treat them.

When we make a true commitment to walk in love, it usually causes a huge shift in our lifestyle. Many of our ways - our thoughts, our conversation, our habits - have to change. For instance, we may be accustomed to spending all our extra money on ourselves only to discover that walking in love requires that we spend it on others.

Love wants to Pay the Price

A love walk does not come easily or without personal sacrifice. Each time we choose to love someone, it will cost us something - time, money or effort. That's why we are told to count the cost before we make the commitment.

1 Corinthians 14:1 says, Eagerly pursue and seek to acquire [this] love [make it your aim, your great quest]...

The word pursue means 'to follow in an effort to capture or overtake." The word seek means "to try to find or discover; search for." In other words, we need to go after love with all our might and act as if we cannot live without it!

How to Nurture Your Desire to Love

There are different degrees of desire. We want many things in life, but there are only a few things we want so much that we are willing to sacrifice to have them.

If you and I want to learn about love, we will have to study it. We will have to read books about it, listen to teachings on it, familiarize ourselves with everything Jesus and the apostles said about it.

Look for love in action. Try to find someone who operates in love and study that individual. Watch how he or she handles people and difficult or tense situations. Observe how they give. Examine the fruit of their life.

I encourage you to view love as your first priority in life. Study it, seek it, pursue and acquire it, because God's word boldly tells us that we're nothing without it.

Labor Pains

John 16:21-22 likened Jesus' disciples to a woman in labor.
21A woman, when she gives birth to a child, has grief (anguish, agony) because her time has come. But when she has delivered the child, she no longer remembers her pain (trouble, anguish) because she is so glad that a man (a child, a human being) has been born into the world.

22So for the present you are also in sorrow (in distress and depressed); but I will see you again and [then] your hearts will rejoice, and no one can take from you your joy (gladness, delight).

John 16:33 is the epidural:
I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]
This series of free pregnancy e-books serves to give an idea of the pregnancy experience. Very suited for men. May this series help in relating better to John 16:21-22 when we experience labor pains in our Christian walk. For a start, may it help the men love and appreciate their wives just that little bit more.
