LOVING ALL














LOVING ALL


Jesus demanded us
To love one another=
TO LOVE ALL


We are called to
Love all people=even
When they are DIFFERENT
Than us=
Even when they are DIFFICULT


“Beloved=if God
So LOVED US


We must also
Love ONE ANOTHER” 1 John 4:11


Love calls us
To be KIND and
Nonjudgmental of all people


And I don't mind
Telling you=this JESUS INSPIRED LOVE
Is difficult to pull off


It is easy
To encounter PROBLEMS
With loving all


Because many people think
AND ACT in ways that
Are INAPPROPRIATE=if not
Down right law breaking


Even though they are criminals
These people
Are included in those
We are to love


So what should we do?
What would Jesus do?
Where do we FIND
THIS INSPIRED LOVE?
Deep within OUR SOULS


“These are
The LAST WORDS of David=
'The INSPIRED utterance
Of David=son of Jesse


The utterance of the man
Exalted by the MOST HIGH
The man anointed


By the God of Jacob-
The hero of Israel's songs'” 2 Samuel 23:1


“Because your sins
Are so many
And your hostility
So great


The prophet is
Considered a fool
The INSPIRED person
A maniac” Hosea 9:7


“We remember
Before our God and Father
Your work produced
By faith


Your labor
Prompted by love
And your endurance
INSPIRED by hope
In our Lord Jesus Christ” 1 Thessalonians 1:3


Let us remember
What Jesus already DID=
And still does
Every day throughout time


He hates sinful conduct
And he condemns it=
Yet he gave up his life
FOR US ALL


But he always gives
Each person ANOTHER CHANCE=
Remember the parable
Of the PRODIGAL SON=
He forgives


“REMEMBER Lord
Your great mercy
And love


For they are
From of old” Psalm 25:6


Jesus always GIVES us
Another chance
To get it right


When we hope for
And PRAY for the MISGUIDED
Every day of our lives=
Then we are loving
One another=
We are LOVING ALL
As Jesus surely did


In the names of Jesus=and our ALWAYS LOVING and forgiving Father
