Redeeming Love-What Is It?

My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.John 15:12 NIV Bible Gateway

It is not holding someone’s past or current mistakes against them. It is unconditional love. This does not say it won’t be difficult. It is sacrificial love. 

When you love someone you don’t pick them apart you love them with God’s love and the love of the fruits of the Spirit. A person may be from a background of rejection or immense emotional trauma. 

Read 1 Corinthians 13 which is also known as the love chapter. Love puts others first. Love believes. Love hopes. Love forgives. Love is selfless. Love understands. Love is patient.  A person can be redeemed from the worst pit so never condemn or throw stones. All of us have fallen short of God’s glory so know God can use anyone from any background. 

PRAYER: Father your love is unending and is patient and kind. You are full of forgiveness and provide hope for a new life when a person needs redemption. Help me not judge but pray. In Jesus’ name. Amen. 

Note: In 2022 a marvelous faith based movie came out called Redeeming Love. Not necessarily for those under 14 due to Strong Thematic material. It is on Prime.
