Chapter 4

Agape Love

    The supreme love of God reveals itself through his actions towards mankind. His love is a wonderful and it touches the very soul of men and women. It has nothing to do with romantic feelings. When I think of agape love, I think it has more to do with actions. It is a force. It is mental. God's love is supreme. There is no greater love on the earth. 

    His love grips me deeply within and it causes me to ponder the beauty of his character. What I can grasp from his actions is the true and living God has an unnatural response to us when it comes to love his love is steady and stable. It is supernatural or spirit. His love is superior to our love. A man who gives his life for another............ there is no greater love. How can we love like God. It is impossible without God. I think God wants us to listen to him and obey him and that will move our actions to look like his. But I think it is impossible to love like God without God. Moses needed God to deliver the people. God sent him. So, it was God's love at work first. Then Moses following God and thankfully Moses listen to God because he saved a lot of people from horrible circumstances. 

    God's love is a mystery. It is so mysterious I am sure a selfish person cannot understand it. We love those who love us that is easy. But God loves those who don't love him. He loves those who talk about him. He does not have fellowship with them, but he loves them by giving them even the choice to reject him. He does not beg them to like him, but he does not hold their hate for him against them. I am sure he prays for them and gives them opportunities to change their position. 

    God loves because that's who he is. He wants to restore the broken soul. He wants to help us learn about love as well as teach us to run from hate. Because a man who hates is in darkness. He is the creator who gives men and women choices; he lets men choose love, or hate. 

    I want to live a life of love. I want my loved ones to know and feel my love. The love of God has been my teacher, and he has truly loved me. I desire that every man realize that abuse is not always being mean to a person, but it is also abusive to love someone so much, you let them do what they want to do. They are horrible and you just ignore their bad behavior. Both situations are a representation of not loving someone. A good parent chastens their child; to correct them is to love them. To not correct them is to hate them. Love corrects, love disciplines, and most importantly love does not hurt.
