love life

‘Do not love the world or the things in the world’


How do you love life without loving the things of this world?

You understand and recognize that every day is a gift –

It is bestowed upon us by the One True & Living God

It is easy to get distracted with the things of the world because we have to dwell within the systems and structures of this world

Yet our joy is found in the love of God and in loving the life He has given us

‘I am come that they may have life, and that they may have it abundantly.’ John 10:10

Jesus desired that we would have a wonderful life – an abundantly rich life

Yet so often we waste the days, taking for granted the precious moments we have been gifted

It is not say that everything in life is ideal –

We do not love life because everything is perfect

We do not love life because we have everything we desire

We simply love life because God saw fit to breathe life into us – to share another day with us, here, in the earth ... until that glorious day when He calls us home to spend eternity with Him forever

There is a saying that rather than count the days, we should make the days count

I agree wholeheartedly and would add that we should count the blessings in those days

I hope you had a blessed day today – 

And I pray that you took some time to really love the life God has given you

 

Have a Blessed Evening!

 

‘Keep yourselves in the love of God …’

Jude 1:21
