A little love goes along way—now imagine what the love of God can do!
For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. 2 Corinthians 5:14-15
If the love of another human has the potential to inspire an individual to go to college, serve their country in the military, or serve in their church—imagine what the love of God can do. According to 2 Corinthians, it will cause them not to live for themselves but live for Jesus. It will cause them to sell everything and serve on the mission field. It will cause them to serve in their church. It will cause them to give of their time, talents, and treasures.
Living for Jesus is simply recognizing Him in every aspect of life. Not only in church on Sunday, not only when others are around, but every day and in every situation. Living for Jesus is dying to self daily and surrendering your life to His will.
Does the love of Christ prod, compel, cause, push, or have you surrendered to live for Jesus? If not, there isn’t a problem with His love—it’s yours!
