====Love's Ministry ====

"Christ loved the church and gave Himself up for her!" Ephesians 5:25 

Love's quality is measured by . . . 

what it will do, 

what it will give, and 

what it will suffer. 

God so loved the world that He gave — gave His only begotten Son, gave all — and withheld nothing! 

That is the measure of God's love for us — it loves to the uttermost. If you are one of Christ's redeemed people, then . . . .
 
every energy of your mind, 

every affection of your heart, 

every power of your soul, 

every fiber of your body, 

every element of your influence, 

every penny of your money — 

is Christ's; and all of these are to be used to bless others and to make the world better and holier. If we love, we will give , we will suffer , we will sacrifice . 

If we would be like God, we must live to minister to others, giving our life, without reserve, to service in Christ's name! 

"The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me!" Galatians 2:20
