We love because He first loved us! It’s the fruit of His intimacy with us :)

He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love — Col 1:13 

God’s love is the light at the end of your darkest tunnel :)

— Daniel 2:21

2 Timothy 2:7 

— 1 Kings 3:12

Our hearts contain the DNA of God’s Spirit and what overflows from our hearts, manifests on the outside.. so God has given to each of us unique wisdom and understanding to perceive things in unique angles.. God has made all of us so uniquely true :)

And God gave Solomon wisdom and exceedingly great understanding, and largeness of heart like the sand on the seashore — 1 Kings 4:29

Jesus who is Wisest of us all, in Him we have EXCEDDINGLY great understanding and giantic heart, that is more than enough to hold all the stand on the seashore, to contain all the truth, all the wisdom, all the love, all the grace that God can ever give.

To give prudence (practical learning) to the simple,
To the young man knowledge and discretion—
A wise man will hear and increase learning,
And a man of understanding will attain wise counsel,
To understand a proverb and an enigma,
The words of the wise and their riddles

— Provb 1:4-6

Choose wise, understanding, and knowledgeable men from among your tribes, and I will make them heads over you. (Deut 1:13)

Through wisdom a house is built,
And by understanding it is established;
By knowledge the rooms are filled
With all precious and pleasant riches (Proverbs 24:3-4)

Wisdom is the principal thing; Therefore get wisdom. And in all your getting, get understanding (Proverbs 4:7)

1 Chronicles 29:12

If we can never change the work of Jesus on the cross, we can never change the covenant of peace that God has with us. Because it is finished and it can never be undone or replaced, His covenant with us will last forever.

While I was at our youth service tonight, it just occured to me that I have about 14 more services at NCC before I leave for Newcastle.. time flew just so quickly :P.. praise Jesus and i’m certainly anticipating for all the blessings that God has prepared for me in this new season of my life :)

The most precious thing you can ever give to someone is your own life because it’s paid for by the blood of Christ. It is more blessed to give than to receive. There’s no greater love than this but to lay down your life for someone. God has decided to blessed the most intimate human relationship; marriage, in the most valuable way possible and that is to cause two persons to lay down their lives for each other out of an unqunechable love in Christ, to be fused as one inseparable bond. This is how much God values His bride and this is how much God has blessed our marriages - the giving away of two precious lives in exchange for one very precious life together.

Just as His righteousness is everlasting, so is His favor. It’s an unmerited, undeserved position given by God, qualified by Christ.
