Jeremiah 31:3 - Gods Love is Everlasting.
Jeremiah 31:3 (NKJV) The LORD has appeared
of old to me, saying: "Yes, I have loved you
with an everlasting love; Therefore with
lovingkindness I have drawn you.
COMMENTARY PEARL
God's love did not begin at the cross,
but in eternity past. Before the world was
established, before the time clock of civilization began
to move, God's love prevailed.
But not until the Good News of Jesus
Christ burst onto the human scene was the word love
understood on earth with such depth, as God coming down
to us inhuman form, an expression of unmerited
love.
If we truly love Christ in return, we
will want to please and honor Him by the way we
live. Even the thought of hurting Him or bringing
disgrace to His name will be abhorrent to us.
The greatest act of love we can ever
demonstrate is to tell others about God's love for them
in Christ. When Christ's love fills our hearts,
it puts selfishness on the run. "We love Him
because He first loved us" (1 John 4:19).
The love of God that reaches man,
however, can be entirely rejected. God will not force
Himself upon anyone. It is our part to believe; it
is our part to receive. Nobody else can do it
for us.
Can you conceive of a love that existed
before time? [Peace for Each Day by Billy Graham]
