God's Love

Bible says that love is patient and kind; never boastful, selfish, or rude.Love never demands its own way or is glad about injustice - rather, love rejoices when the truth wins out.Love is loyal no matter the cost. Love always believes the best in us and stands its ground in defending us.

Now substitute the word love with "God" and read the paragraph again. You see, God not only loves - He is love. 

No other love in heaven or on earth compares to God's because His very nature defines agape - selfless, unconditional - love. And that's how God loves us. 

His love heals, restores, fills, accepts, secures, and completes us. It's unending, unfailing, unchanging, and radical. So if you are feeling unloved run to the source of love and let Him fill you with the redeeming power of His amazing love. His love is all we ever have need of. 

"God's love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us."
Romans 5:5  

"Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should called children of God."
1 John 3:1

"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son so that those who would believe in Him should not perish but have eternal life."
John 3:16

"But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us." 
Romans 5:8

"I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness." 
Jeremiah 31:13
