Loving thy neighbor

God has made it easy for us to understand what love is all about, and He has also set a very clear and precise example of how to love. Many times we run to think about how God gave His only son and we immediately think of the forgiveness of our sins. But I would like you to consider this for a moment. the giving of Jesus was a result but not the precursor - it was an action that was a result of something greater than the action. Most times we are restricted in showing love because we consider the action first before we get the motive so to say right.
God had to overcome the consideration of self - selfishness - to put it bluntly in order to be able to let Jesus come die for the world. This is why the love demonstrated here by God is so profound. The lesson for us is that in order to love we have to be selfless - consider our self last in the equation rather than first as we tend to do most times.

Stay bless, rapturable and favoured.
