IS LOVE AT THE CENTER OF YOUR BEING?

IS LOVE AT THE CENTER
OF YOUR BEING?


Jesus and his followers LIVED with
God=with LOVE=at the CENTER
Of their lives


Are you? AM I? Are we
DOING the same? Doesn't look
LIKE we are BASED
On what is going on
In the world today


“When he disembarked
And SAW the vast crowd


His HEART=was moved
With pity for them...............” Mark 6:34


Just look at this scene=
The CIRCUMSTANCES and the emotions
Are running wild


Jesus and his DISCIPLES
Have just had a day-
OVERFLOWING with human need


The DEMANDS were so constant
That they didn't even have
A CHANCE to eat


Jesus and his apostles
Are looking for SOLITUDE


But yet they-
Are pushing off shore
To cross the lake
To continue to
SREAD THE WORD!


LOVE is at the
CENTER of their being=
Am I? Are you CENTERED
IN LOVE?=The way Jesus
And his apostles were


Let LOVE LEAD YOU
Let LOVE be your CENTER PIECE


“See if
There is any offensive way
In me


And LEAD ME
In the way everlasting” Psalm 139:24


“I instruct you
In the WAY of wisdom


And LEAD you
Along straight paths” Proverbs 4:11


“Dear children=do
NOT let anyone
LEAD you astray


The one who does
What is RIGHT
Is righteous


Just as he is RIGHTEOUS” 1 John 3:7


Is LOVE LEADING you
Like it was Jesus
And his FOLLOWERS?


Is love at the CENTER
Of your being?


Jesus gets ACROSS the lake
And SEES a throng of people
That beat him
To his destination


We DON'T KNOW what he
Was thinking=just what he DID


His ACTIONS were ground in
COMPASSION and his HEART
Was MOVED with pity
And he BEGAN to TEACH
The waiting crowd


LOVE was at the CENTER
Of his BEING


“I love you LORD=
My strength” Psalm 18:1


“Let LOVE and faithfulness
NEVER leave you
Bind them


Around your neck
WRITE them-
On the tablet
Of your HEART” Proverbs 3:3


Dear Lord=we PRAY=please
Let LOVE BE
The CENTER of our being


PLEASE let love
BE the CENTER
Of our actions


Just like the Lord Jesus=and=
His followers=and let us=SHARE THE LOVE!


In Jesus' name
