WITHOUT LOVE by Houk Hitchcock
Without Love, this world stands no chance.
Without your love, your world stands no chance at all.
Love sees all.
Love believes all that is good.
Love endures.
Love sustains.
Love doesn’t reckon evil.
Love always begins with John 3:16- God so loved the world.
Jesus carried that love all the way to the cross.
You and I, indeed the entire world, are the beneficiaries of that
kind of love that would go to the cross. He did it. Jesus only had
to do it once and for all.
If we only love those that love us, we have a nice circle of love.
Bravo.
If we love those that don’t love us, then we begin to start moving
into Jesus’ territory.
Love is light, turned up to its brightest level. When you can love
the leper- you can hug him. When you love your enemy, you
confound him: there’s nothing for him to say; he either makes
the choice or he doesn’t; but at least he had a chance.
Love goes all the way. Love does not stop at obstacles. Love
obliterates obstacles. Love does not limit an unlimited God of
love.
When we embrace the fullness of this love from God, then we will
truly be disciples of the Master.
You can love no larger than you yourself are loved. Perceive,
reckon and embrace this love from God so that you will be able to
reflect what you embrace.
Time is short. The day is at hand.
Love today like you’ve never loved before.
Love is born within you- love is constantly being poured over you.
In the end, only love will have mattered.
