In order to understand real love ❤, we must look to Jesus. Look at Jesus at the wedding of Cana 🤵🏾👰🏽. He is an invited guest, the wedding went out of wine, Jesus turned the water into wine for the benefit of the couple, saved them from embarrassment.
Look at Jesus at Jacob's well. He is tired and hungry after a long journey, a woman came to draw water at the well, Jesus put aside His own need to speak to the Samaritan woman and offered her the water of life.
What does it mean to love ❤? Look at Jesus being arrested by the guards, Peter took out his sword, cut off the ear 👂🏾 of one of the guards 💂🏾♂️, Jesus told Peter to put away his sword, then Jesus with His hands bound, took the ear 👂🏾 and healed the guard ❤
What does it mean to love ❤? Look at Jesus, bleeding, wounded and carrying the heavy cross , seeing some women crying for Him 😭. Look at Him stopping and telling the women don't cry for me, but cry for yourselves and your children. He forgot about His own pain to address the women
What does it mean to love ❤? Look at Jesus on the cross, crown of thorn on His head, being barely able to breath and dying. Yet when He heard the dying thief on the cross say Lord remember me, Jesus answered today, I tell you, you will be with me in paradise. Jesus ignored His own sufferings to save a life ❤
So what did we learn today 🤔? What does it mean to love ❤? To love is to continually putting aside self, your own needs in order to reach out to others, to understand another and to help another. Love is never about what you receive, but how much you are willing to sacrifice for another at the expense of your self . Learn to love like Jesus 🙏🏾
