Outrageous Love
By: Daniel Adams
Though I speak with the tongue of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. — 1 Corinthians 13:1
If you don’t love then you’re not a Christian! I’ve heard some people go as far as to say that they have no ability to love. The word of God says in Romans 5:5 that "the love of God has been shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit." You don’t have to activate this love or pray for it, it’s just there from the moment you’re born again!
Walking in love is one of the most important things that we can do in our lives. You can be a great teacher, preacher, musician, or committed member of a local church, but if you don’t have love you have nothing.
The Lord Jesus himself said that, that the only sign that unbelievers will know that you’re a Christian is that you show love. If there’s anyone you hold a grudge with, let that grudge go, give it to God, and tell that person you love them with the love of Christ today! God, Himself is love, so it is not a weakness to love.
Confession: Today, I make my love walk a top priority in life. From now, people shall know that Jesus is alive in me because I love everyone. Love is my great quest in life.
