WHAT'S LOVE GOT TO DO
WITH IT?
BY CAROLYN HARRIS ( FLORIDA)
John 3:16, ““For God so loved the world, that he gave
his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him
should not perish, but have everlasting life.” John 3:16
KJV
There was a movie out several years ago with the title, “What's Love Got to Do
With it?” It was suppose to be an autobiographical movie about Tina Turner's life.
However, I believe it can be viewed as a parallel to many of u. Why? Because
Love is the essence of our existence.
This scripture alone explains the title of my blog. Because our God loves us so
much, he was willing to sacrifice his only begotten son, so we could be called his
beloved. Jesus came to earth for the precise reason to experience human life and
to show us the Father. What manner of Love has God bestowed upon us that we
should be called the sons of God. There is no greater love than the love God has
for his people. Throughout history of the Bible and even our own personal lives,
the love of God is evident. Let’s celebrate this Easter loving our God with our
whole heart!
Easter is the day we celebrate his resurrection and his love,
Romans 5:5-9
“But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were
yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now
justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.”
