ADDICT OF LOVE

Let no one despise or think less of you because of your youth, but be an example (pattern) for the believers in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, and in purity. 1 Timothy 4:12 AMPC

Paul in the verse above was advising Timothy to be an example "in Love". The Bible says we are to love one another. Sounds good, but the question is can we do it? Someone once said, "I love mankind; it’s people I can't stand. Love is so powerful, I don’t know if there's anything more powerful than love. It is the strongest power in the world. This is the kind of love that lets you get along with one another as the Bible instructed; "This is My commandment: that you love one another [just] as I have loved you (John 15:12). When you really love somebody, you can put up with their differences. 

It was Love that brought Salvation down from God to man (Romans 5:5); If our hearts are not filled with love, it’s our own fault, because every believer possesses the Holy Ghost, and the Holy Ghost sheds abroad in our hearts, the love of God. This means that love overflows in our hearts always and at all times because God is love. Be an addict of God's Love; take advantage of this love and express to someone who needs it. Win a soul to the kingdom by showing and loving them. Think how it would be if that lost person received the Love of the Father; without a doubt, Heaven and the Hosts of Heaven will throw a party on behalf of the soul. Let all that you do be done in Love.
