Beautiful, TRUE song! If we don’t have love, we have nothing!

The Bible says allot about love in 1st Corinthians 13 includng “And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing” .

Wow, those are pretty “impressive” things.  Prophetic powers, understanding mysteries, knowledge, and faith to remove mountains!!  But if we don’t have LOVE (emphasis mine :)) we don’t have nothing?  The song talks about having money, cool friends, mansions, and even everyone’s attention………but if we don’t have love, we do NOT have anything.

To me, that’s deep AND worth meditating on.  In fact, when asked what the greatest commandment in the Law is, Jesus answered “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.  This is the first and greatest commandment.  And the second is like it:  Love your neighbor as yourself.  All the Law and the Prophets hand on these two commandments.”

The word love in that verse, in greek, means “to welcome, to entertain, to be fond of, to love dearly”………..to love God that way and our neighbors…….

Seems to me that love is an extremely important thing to get!!  The first and greatest commandment!  Do we just get it?  How do we get it, this deep kind of love for God and our neighbors, meaning everyone……

Let’s start by praying for God to touch our hearts once again today, everyday……to see with His eyes, to feel with His heart, to hear with His ears and have Him to develop an attitude like Him.  We are made in His image and the baggage we carry can be dealt with as well by giving it to Him……………Let His love shine through today!  There is freedom just in that!

Enjoy the song!  It is beautiful!

Let me know what YOU think!?

Blessings!
