According to the Bible, Our Heavenly Father’s love is a call to love others in a way that is selfless, generous, and puts others before ourselves. Here are some ways to love others as Our Heavenly Father loves:
Our Heavenly Father’s call to love others is audacious. We’re to put others ahead of ourselves, love people we don’t like (or don’t even know), and share our resources generously. It’s a love that forces us to grow — we can’t love like Jesus did without our hearts changing. Lord, help us to love people as you love them.
- He loves every one of us, even those who are flawed or awkward. God’s love is so great that He loves even the proud, the selfish, the arrogant, and the wicked. What this means is that, no matter our mistakes, our infinitely compassionate Heavenly Father desires that we draw near to Him so that He can draw near to us. kind: Put others’ needs before your own and be thoughtful about what would make their lives better.
And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself. ‘ All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.” Jesus said the most important thing is to “love the Lord your God with all your heart, soul mind and strength, and the next most important is to love our neighbor as yourself.Love your enemies: Treat others as you would like to be treated.
Jesus’ love was servant-hearted and sacrificial even unto death. Jesus’ love was selfless, counter-cultural, and good in every way. Jesus instructs us as his followers to love in that same way: unconditional, self-sacrificial, and servant-hearted. Jesus walked this earth teaching, serving, and embracing people.
- Give generously: Give without seeking a return.
- Put others ahead of yourself: Love people you don’t like or know.
- Share your resources: Share your resources generously.
- Be steadfast: God’s love is longsuffering.
- Be sincere: Rejoice when another is blessed.
