We often use the word "love" to describe how we feel
about another human being, food, clothing and other things. Jesus
introduced the concept of divine love when He walked on the earth
some 2,000 years and it culminated with His sacrifice on the cross
for the sins of mankind. Divine love is so important that speaking
in tongues and having the gift of prophecy is worthless without it.
This kind of love will make you patient and removes all jealousy
and pride. It helps you behave properly toward others, removes all
selfishness and makes it impossible to be offended. Divine love
compels you to go the extra mile without murmuring and makes you
willing to endure hardship. This supernatural love is eternal and
the most powerful thing in the universe. In fact, it is the only
thing that will be carried over into eternity and all our efforts on
earth are wasted if the love of God isn't what compels us to do what
we do on a daily basis. This should give us a fresh perspective on
how to live and the importance of love in the kingdom of God. The
good news is that there is no limit with God as you learn and grow.
