Love Covered It All

The Bible tells us all the things that will come to pass on this earth, and God wants us to walk in love. If we only realized how much God loves us, and that His love covers it all.
John 3:16; For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
There isn’t anything in this life that we go through that God’s love won’t cover.
God is Love, that’s who He is. Jesus said, in the last days, because sin shall increase, the love of many will grow cold. We see this happening more each day. God is looking for someone who will show forth His love.
John 13:34-35; A new commandment I give unto you, that you love one another, as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this shall all men know that you are my disciples, if you have love one to another.
This command came straight from Jesus, to love one another as He has loved us, but too many Christian’s are carnal, too many are easily provoked and offended. Many walk in the flesh, and if someone rubs them the wrong way, they are ready for a fight. This isn’t showing love one to another as Jesus commanded.
1 John 3:11; For this is the message that you heard from the beginning, that we should love one another.
1 John 4:7-8; Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone that loves is born of God, and knows God. He that loves not, knows not God; for God is love.
We need to change our attitude, we need to think before we speak, before we say something that will cause hurt and pain to someone else. Some people are labeled hard to love, but we still have to make the effort, Jesus is our example. Jesus loved us into the kingdom of God, he drew us, and loved us in spite of our sin. And we can do the same with others.
1 John 4:16-18; And we have known, and believed the love that God has to us. God is love; and he that dwells in love dwells in God, and God in him. Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, so, are we in this world. There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear. Because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love.
Romans 12:10; Be kindly affectionate one to another with brotherly love, in honor preferring one another.
Galatians 5:14; For all the law is fulfilled in one word, even in this; you shall love your neighbor, as thy self.
1 Corinthians, chapter 13, is a perfect example of how to walk in the love of God.
1 Peter 4:8; And above all things have fervent charity, among yourselves, for charity shall cover the multitude of sins.
God doesn’t throw us away when we mess up, but He throws our sins in the sea of forgetfulness when we truly repent, because Love covers it All
