The Law of Love (2) Saturday, 9 August 2014 Above all, clothe yourselves with love.Colossians 3:14 NLT Gods love is the most powerful force the world has ever seen. And as a follower of Christ it is up to you to carry the torch and keep it burning. The Bible says, Clothe yourselves with tenderhearted mercy, kindness, humility, gentleness, and patience...Above all, clothe yourselves with love, which binds us all together in perfect harmony (vv. 12,14 NLT). Its one thing to quote Scriptures, pray long articulate prayers in public, study theology, and attend church. But only when people see your love will they be impacted by your life. Love, not words, is the true test of your discipleship. Its said that General Omar Bradley once made a business trip on a commercial airline wearing a regular suit instead of his military uniform. When he reached his seat he started doing some paperwork. As it turned out, the man seated next to him was a young army private who didnt recognize Bradley. So after takeoff he turned to the general and said, Since were going to be together for a while, it would be nice if we got to know each other. My guess is that youre a banker. Not wishing to seem rude but needing to finish his work, Bradley replied, No, Im General Omar Bradley, a five-star general in the U.S. Army. I head up the Joint Chiefs of Staff at the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. Without missing a beat, the young private replied, Well, sir, thats a very important job, and I sure hope you dont blow it! Your most important job today is to show Gods loveso dont blow it! Soul Food: 1 Chr 7:20-9:44 , Lk 12:13-21, Ps 119:17-24, Prov 20:22-24 ~ Bob and Debby Gass - UCB International - © 2012
