I originally hadn't planned on sharing this but I feel like it needs to be heard before I can write my post on the sermon from Sunday.
To understand how to pour out God's love on people, you have to first understand how much you are loved. It's such a huge topic that covers so many things but you need to know the immensity of it so you can understand the source of the love that you're supposed to pour out in my next post.
God made you on purpose. You might not have been planned or wanted, or maybe you were desperately longed for, but no matter the circumstance, you were not an accident or a lucky incident. The timing, the parents, and your life was on purpose. He made you because he wanted you. He made you because he needs you to help him fulfill his purpose on Earth. He knew you before you were born and had plans for you since the beginning. If you've ever hoped for children, you can only grasp the very tip of the longing God has for you and your life specifically.
Because of his longing and love for you, you are perfect in his eyes. No matter what you do, what you did, what you're thinking about doing, you can't run away from the desire he has for you. He will ALWAYS be there waiting for you with open arms and joy in his eyes. His love for you is so immense that we can't even begin to imagine the depths of it. Our minds are too small to grasp it; I'm afraid if he showed us how much he loves us that our brains would explode ;)
Once you recognize and say yes to his love, it becomes a life force within you. It becomes something you can no longer control and it will flow out of you. It's not something you can contain or stifle; his love living inside you is like a caged animal begging to get out. Love will pour out of you in the form of kindness, forgiveness, gentleness, encouragement and truth. Please ask God to reveal a piece of his love for you and just watch how your life will change.
