How's Your Love?

John 5:20 - How's Your Love?



Surely you have loved ones, it could be your wife, husband, boyfriend or girlfriend. Or even a friend whom you loved so much. But how could you show him / her your love? 

In this verse, Jesus was telling his audiences the Jewish leaders that the Father loves him by showing him all he does, as in everything. No secret at all.
20 For the Father loves the Son and shows him all he does. Yes, and he will show him even greater works than these, so that you will be amazed. 

We're all familiar with Jesus baptism when a voice from heaven said " "This is my beloved Son, in Him I am well pleased. " That was a proof how Father love's His son, Jesus.


But how about us? How's our love to others? How do we love?  How do we show our love?Can you show or make greater works to the one we love? That makes people amaze.

We probably don't have too much in material things. But even in simple things we can show our love to others. Even praying them, more importantly praying those whom hurts you? Can we do it? Can we pray for those who hurt us? 



I can show my love to others or neighbors by letting them get a gallon of water from my faucet for free. In my place today, people sometimes run out of water. By God's grace it happened, I do have more supply so I had them get a water without asking them money.Those are only simple things. And I started gaining good relationship with them. 

An officemate of mine as well who happened to have no money. I let her lend without asking for interest that's what Jesus said in Luke 6:35. It was not a big amount though. But that's fine as long as I do it out of love.

Surely the Father does showed His love to us even if we hurt Him by disobeying his commands. As Romans 5:8 says "But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." What a perfect demonstration of God's love towards us. He let his son died so we can be friends with him again. 

And hey, Christmas is coming to town. Are we gonna show love to the people around us because it's Christmas? How about if it's not Christmas. Can we remain loving to them even before and after Christmas? Hopefully we can, as most people only show their love on Christmas.


How's your love?

John 3: 1 - 21 " The License To Heaven".

In order for us to drive a vehicle legally we must have a driver's license. And to get a driver's license is not an easy thing. You have to always undergo the protocol such physical examination that includes a series of test like drug test. And if you'll pass the physical examination. Next is you will undergo through a driving test. And if you'll pass, then that's the time you can get your license to drive. But how about to get to heaven? Do we need a license? Let's read through the conversation of a noble Pharisee and Jesus as He explained to him how to get to heaven. 3  Now there was a Pharisee, a man named Nicodemus  who was a member of the Jewish ruling council.   2  He came to Jesus at night and said, “Rabbi,  we know  that you are a teacher who has come from God. For no one could perform the signs  you are doing if God were not with him.” About Nicodemus: A Pharisee- Known to be law observer, teacher and expert. This man is...

Personal Devotions - Book of John 1: 1-8 - Jesus was the Word who became flesh but God and was with God in the beginning.

John 1:  1   In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The word " beginning " refers back to the creation of the world in Gen 1:1 where it says " God created the heavens and earth. The Word was there during the creation of the world. And notice it's  capital  "W".  ... the Word was with God. There are two persons obviously here. ...the Word was God. Who is the Word? Answer: He is God in the beginning. Let's connect this to verse 14 where it says "   The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth". The Word in verse 1 that was with God and God himself is the same Word who became flesh or human.   ...made his dwelling among us simply means the Word  have lived on earth as a full human. ...his glory, the glory of the one and only Son. The Word was the only Son Jesus Christ. ...
