CULTIVATING LOVE
Children of God need to know that attending church services or serving as a worker in the church alone does not make a Christian. True Christians are not Christians just because they go to church. True Christians are identified by the fruits they bear (Matthew 7:21-23). Love is one of the fruits of the spirit. It is important we know that trees don't just bear fruits, they have to cultivate them
That is why fruits of the spirit or attitude of the word of God that you don't cultivate may not naturally be manifesting in you. So we have to be deliberate in cultivate the fruits of love. To cultivate a fruit of character is by labouring in the word of God. We have to study the word of God about love until it form part of our thinking. God’s word is to be meditated on day and night (Joshua 1:8). We should give ourselves wholly to thinking the way of the love of Christ.
Whatever you keep meditating on, you will keep acting on. It is what you are driving into your heart through meditation that you will keep acting out. If you cannot meditate continually over anything, it cannot be part of your character (Romans 12:2 NLT). This way the love of Christ will be spread abroad in your heart by the help of the Holy Spirit (Romans 5:5). Then you can keep demonstrating God's kind of love. Peace
PRAYER: Lord, let your love
be planted in my heart
“If you cannot stop the
thoughts, you cannot stop the acts”
