The Real You

Matt 6:44 But I say to you, love your enemies, and pray for those who persecute you.
6:45 In order that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven: for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

Luke 6:36..and you will be sons of the Most High; for He Himself is kind (good) to the ungrateful and the evil men.

It is an amazing thing this love of Yours, Father. You show no partiality (Rom 2:11 ).

For you have created all things and they were created for You. (Col 1:16)

When you make us your own through Jesus Christ and His Cross, we become a new creature in Him. (2 Cor 5:17)

You see who we are with perfect love toward us, knowing our soul is being transformed into the image of Him who has risen from the dead…Jesus!

Human eyes see only the fleshly part of us. That is why our love is so faulty. Jesus enables mankind to know what true love is through the love You, Father, have demonstrated to us that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. (Rom 5:8)

A person without Jesus can never be all that he was created to be because he was created for Him and Him alone. Each life has a purpose and that purpose is able to be completely fulfilled through Jesus Christ. His Spirit active in us produces that life .

Yes, Father, that You, a Holy God are kind to ungrateful and evil men is amazing in itself and not only kindness do You give. You extend Your mercy and forgiveness in perfect love to give them the opportunity to come to You and become a child of Yours.

Help the Body of Christ to be merciful as You are merciful.
