This Is Love
Confession of Faith
I am not moved by what I see or by what I feel.
I am moved by what I believe.
I believe the WORD of God!
The victory is mine!
I have it now!
I can see it through the eyes of my faith!
This Is Love
Today we want to look at the biblical text that reminds us of The Love God has for each of his children!
Description Of God’s Love!
Question - How do you describe a rose to someone who is blind!
How do you describe your favorite son or musical peace to someone who is deaf!
How do you describe an infinite love to a impure-finite human?
This Is Love
Definition Of God’s Love
This is love for us spiritually
This is love emotionally
This is Love eternally
This Is Love Physically
God’s love will always make the final judgement call - Judicially
This Is Love
The knowledge of God’s Love
What do I know of God’s love
God’s love is all consuming
If you can imagine - as a little boy or girl getting lost in a grocery store- separated from your mother!
Everything is so confusing, and you start crying because everyone you saw was a stranger!
But all of a sudden - your mother finds you and picks you up - holds you in her arms and your tears begin to dry up, not because of your surroundings, but because of who is holding you!
When you are in the arms of a loving God, it doesn’t matter what anyone thinks of you - it doesn’t matter what the situation is - When you are in the arms of God you have been consumed with his love!
This Is Love
Friends
A Vietnam veteran tells this story about an eight year old orphan girl who was wounded after a misdirected mortar attack!
An American Navy Doctor and Nurse were called.
They determined that the little girl would die if she did not get a blood transfusion!
None of the Americans had the correct blood type, but several of the other injured orphans did.
The american doctor spoke very little Vietnamese and the nurse only a little French!
They tried to explain to the young orphans, that unless they could replace some of the young girls blood that she would certainly die.
Then they asked if anyone would be willing to give blood to help
Silence!
After several long moments - a small hand slowly went up! Thank you the nurse said and asked the kid what is your name
Heng - he replied
The put Heng on the pallet, swabbed his arm with alcohol and inserted a needle in his vein.
That little boy laid stiff and silent!
After a moment - he began to sob, quickly covering his face with his free hand!
That turned into steady silent crying - his eyes were tightly shut and his fist in his mouth to quiet the sobbing
The medical team was concerned - Something was wrong!
At this point a Vietnamese nurse arrive and saw the distressed in the little boy
She spoked to him quickly and listened to him reply in Vietnamese - she answered in a soothing voice
After a while he stopped crying!
She nodded to him and relief spread all over his face!
The nurse said to the American medical team - He thought he was dying!
He misunderstood you!
He thought you asked him to give all his blood so the little girl could live!
But Why would he be willing to do that?
They asked
She repeated the question to the boy in Vietnamese who simply ansswered
“Because she is my Friend”
If you want a visible definition of love - look at what God did for us in Jesus Christ
If you really want to Know What Love Is?
look to the Cross at Calvary
This is the ultimate expression of God’s incomprehensible love to you and me!
The Cross is God’s way of saying I love you so much that I died for you!
This is love!
