“Your
unfailing love, O Lord, is as vast
as the heavens; your faithfulness reaches beyond the clouds.” Ps. 36:5 NLT
Love
should be a 2-way relationship – “Reciprocal Love.” God-the-creator loves you
unconditionally, and he’s not about to change his mind – which leads us to the
question, ”Do you love God as much as He loves you?” That’s kind of a
rhetorical question, because as created beings, we’ll never be as good at
something as the Creator. But it’s a worthy goal.
Jesus
taught that we should “Love the Lord
your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your mind.” And then,
“Love your neighbor as yourself.” So God should be ‘first’ in your life. After
that, love those around you, your neighbors. Be nice, be helpful. Do what you
can to make things go better.
“Pour
out your unfailing love on those who love you.” Get it? It’s “Reciprocal Love!”
Ps. 36:10a
