Premeditated LOVE
We have all heard it said that love is a choice.
The Holy Spirit does a supernatural work on our (Christians) ability to love but I see a problem among Christians. They seem to have a problem purposely choosing to love and acting on that power that they have been given. They don't plan to love others as they should... hence, it is not premeditated.
The ability to love has great power because it bonds, it heals, it befriends, it engages, and as the bible says... it is patient, it is kind, does not boast and so on.
I find it incredibly difficult to squelch the work that the Holy Spirit does in us and through us but in this respect, it happens all the time. We all do it!
What are some ways that we could plan to show love to others?
How did someone affect your life with premeditated love?
How do you plan to love your wife or husband? You children?
Describe the power of love that you have witnessed.

Well, today a wonderful couple from our church showed up at my door and presented me with a beautiful boquet of roses from thier garden. They not only look nice, they are making my living room smell wonderful!

Satan tried to pass his method of LOVE with, "all you need is love" but it didn't make the grade. Love is the ability to be unconditionally in love with everyone, to forgive and forget. To understand everyone has their road to travel. I do see my wife through different eyes when i look at her through the love that opens my heart. It seems odd to have a place in your heart to feel for people who are trying to know the Lord and those who do not know the Lord. But the Lord forgives me unconditionally and that is he example i choose to follow. This is a learning process, but i want to seek his kingdom.
