The Love of Christ

The love of God is greater far
  Than tongue or pen can ever tell.
It goes beyond the highest star
  And reaches to the lowest hell.


O love of God, how rich and pure!
  How measureless and strong!
It shall forevermore endure—
    The saints’ and angels’ song.



   This old hymn was written by Frederick Martin Lehman. It's a beautiful song. I encourage you to click here to listen!.

   God has been dealing with me A LOT lately about showing the love of Christ to EVERYONE! Teaching me that part of worship (which I'm passionate about) is living out the love of Christ in my daily life. Anything from a smile to spending my time and money. People express and receive love in so many ways. You never know if just a "hello" will brighten up someone's day.

   Oh to express the same type of love God has displayed to me! That is the challenge God has given to me in this season of life... show HIS love to people every day. It's not always about preaching His Word. Revelation 12:11 says "And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.". We need to LIVE the Word, not just SPEAK the Word.

   THAT is how we win lost souls to Christ!
