Our great desire is that you will keep on loving others as long as life lasts, in order to make certain that what you hope for will come true. Hebrews 6:11

Lifelong love is harder than it sounds.

There’s a reason why many marriages and relationships don’t last. Love requires vulnerability, and this invites the possibility of being hurt.

You may have experienced hurt from having loved someone, but you have probably also experienced the unconditional love of others.

In times of hurt, try and remember those who have loved you for large portions of their lives — perhaps a spouse, a parent, a sibling, or a friend. Lifelong love DOES exist, and it is Christ’s desire to see everyone being loved for their whole lives!

When we experience this kind of love,

we know a small measure of

God’s love for us.

This is what holds the strongest possibility to heal humanity, and because of this, we CAN have confidence that love WILL ultimately win!

Jesus, help me to share your love with others fully and unconditionally!

Help me to share your love with others, as long as life lasts, so that the light of your love can shine into a broken world.

Can you open your heart to others?

hugs n’ blessings to all those who confidently allow the love of Jesus to transform them, so they too can keep on loving….
