God Sees You Through the Lens of Love

Christ Came and Died for the Ungodly

Romans 5:6

What if you viewed every person you encountered with a consciousness that Jesus died for them? Would it change how and if you acknowledge their presence with a nod of your head or a “How are you?” for every person you see? Christ died for them. Remember, God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son (John 3:16), not some of the world or a small portion, but the world.

Washed by the Blood of Jesus

Every person is fearfully and wonderfully made (Psalm 139:14). Now I understand that every person God form has been affected by sin, but what if you viewed them from the standpoint of being washed by the Blood of Jesus? Could you or would you speak to them as you always do? When Jesus becomes Lord of your life, you become a new creation (2 Corinthians 5:17).

New Creation God’s Container

A new creation is something that never existed before. These are not just words in the Bible but a fact you can love like you’ve never had before, new creation! The love of God is shed aboard in your heart by the Holy Ghost (Romans 5:5). You have within you the ability through the Holy Spirit to love the unlovely. What I’m saying is to give people a chance; God did! Now, if you see you’re dealing with a wolf in sheep’s clothes. Pray to God for wisdom; why? Because he also died for them. Sometimes it’s a case of planting some seeds.

God’s Fellow Worker

Apostle Paul said, “I planted, Apollos watered, But God gave the increase, so neither is him that who plants nor him who waters, but God who gives the increase. Now he who plant, and waters are one, and each will receive his reward according to his labor (1 Corinthians 3:4-9). Here’s a novel thought: What if you understood that you were planting seeds every day? And those seeds were producing fruit after its kind? Well, you are!

God Said

Let Us make man in Our image (Genesis 1:26); think about what that means for a moment; every word God spoke created, well, so do we! After God flooded the earth, Noah built an altar to offer a burnt offering to the Lord (Genesis 10:20-22). It is recorded for us that the Lord said in His heart, “I will never again curse the ground for man’s sake, although the imagination of man’s heart is evil from his youth; nor will I again destroy every living thing as I have done.

But “While the earth remains,

Seedtime and harvest cold and heat, and

 day and night, shall not cease.”

Jesus Died for You and Me!

So, today, put on your lens of love, and tune into the channel of the Holy Spirit. Let Jesus guide you; He knows everything you shall experience today (John 16:13). If you invite Jesus in, He will show you everything you need to know and when you need to know it! Christ died for you and me and those who hurt because they are broken!

Love is patient

Love is kind. It does not envy; it does not boast; it is not proud; it does not dishonor others; it is not self-seeking; it is not easily angered; it keeps no record of wrongs.

1 Corinthians 13:4-5 NIV

Beloved,

  God’s love is ever ready to believe in the best of every person!

May the love of God fill your heart and mind to overflow!

In Jesus name
