GOD is love and the love of GOD has been shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Spirit. For GOD is love and GOD so loved the world that he gave us his only begotten son that whosoever believe on him shall not perish but have everlasting life. GOD said owe no man nothing but love. GOD said they will know we are his disciples by our love. GOD also said to love your neighbor as you love yourself for on this hangs the law and all the prophets. Even our faith worketh by love. Faith, hope and love but the greatest of these is love. Love covers a multitude of sin. Love comes from within. GOD is love.
If we loved each other the way we love our children, our spouses, our families, and friends, healing would take place and we’d all live again.
Love heals. He is the Lord thy GOD that heal thee. GOD is love.
So live like GOD gave us the sun, stars, and the moon, many rushing bodies of water to quench our thirst. Love like he’s given us summer, spring, winter, and fall.
Love like he’s given us the ability to create, to build, and to dream. Love like we’re all on the same team. Love like he’s given us touch, taste, and sight.
Love like we have much to be grateful for. For this gift of Love for GOD is love. And all you need is love, love, love, love is all you need.
Love this!!!!!
