The Nature Of Love

The Nature of Love

the nature of love

God’s Love, by its very nature, is an active and creative power within the soul of man. Creation is proof of God ever seeking, ever desiring to expend and lavish His love in new dimensions. The Word declares that we were “created for His pleasure,” and it is His pleasure to pour out Himself in unmeasured and unmerited means. His Love in us seeks, desires, and ever works to color everything within its reach, not to own, rule, or control but to inspire others to live fully in God.

The infinite and all-encompassing God whom our forefathers sought with passion calls us to depths unknowable and heights unsearchable.

“Deep calleth unto deep”
Psalm 42:7

The Love of God is the call, and His Love in man is the response.

“We love Him because He first loved us.”
1 John 4:19

“He said “Love…as I have loved you.”
We cannot love too much.”

Wisdom of the Ages

“That man is perfect in faith who can come to God in the utter dearth of his feelings and desires, without a glow or an aspiration, with the weight of low thoughts, failures, neglects, and wandering forgetfulness, and say to Him, ‘Thou art my refuge.'”

– George MacDonald
