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
