Sharing God
Devotions:
God has given us an inheritance, the souls of men and women. Their hearts cry out to know the living God and His goodness. Our job is simple, to partake of God's goodness in the fullest measure that we can handle and then share it with the world telling them that He wants to lavish His love upon them as well as upon us. Our God, the Creator, is not harsh, mean and cruel but is a God of love who only wants the best for His children. He warns us of what can hurt or harm us and even kill us. He also has done everything necessary to set us free from the things that would destroy us. His heart of love wants to include all of His creation but men and women must choose to follow God willingly. He will not force His love on anyone. God's desire is that we freely receive of His great love and freely give it to all of those around us who will receive it.
The more you walk in the love of God the more you turn away from those things that are a very poor substitute to the things of God. The more you walk in the love of God, how much He loves you, the more you no longer have a taste for sin and the things of the world.
“But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the ages to come He might show the surpassing riches of His grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.” Ephesians 2:4-7 NASB
