Being totally unconcerned with your own self and seeking out those who need our love and support. It seems counter-intuitive, but that's what God designed. If you empty out your self to God, He gives back so much more than you could ever have on your own. Taking that step is not easy though.

I think that it's God's ability to continue to get people to go his way. That is just love in action, sometimes you can see God's influence on people. It's beautiful.
Therre's another thing that I have persoanlly gone through. And that is God leading the Bible reader into understanding of the words within it. It's a daily miracle for those who are so blessed. Because I can come here on any given day and see that there are so many people reading a verse that just cannot understand it, and yet to us who are saved, it's clear as day. What a great, loving, wonderful God we serve.

I will blow people out of the water with this:
Mercy.
If it wasn't for His mercy, His judgment on America would be quick and destructive.
These are the last days. This is the last call for repentance and bring people to the Lord. For those refusing to believe or listen, let them go. For others, pray that His mercy truly triumphs over judgment.
We are teetering on the brink of revival or disaster.

You can't see or touch it but we are aware of it, and its called long-suffering, patience. Taking His time to allow us to make a choice so everyone gets a chance. That is love.
Cause if I was God, this world would have been gone a long time ago.

The fact that He is patiently waiting for all who will come to repentance to do so.
"The Lord is not slow about His promise as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance." 2 Peter 3:9

i grew up learning to hate, scold vulgarities, and steal.
i never had a happy family. happy moments were short, and quarrels between my mom and dad would erupt very soon after.
i hated my mom because i thought she was unreasonable and i thought that she hated me.
i fought with her frequently, physically and using words.
and when i was in my high school years, my dad passed away due to alcohol related incident.
i became worse. my mom and i fought more frequently. eventually, i picked up drugs, smoking, drinking etc. i would not go home. i refused to. one day, my mom and i fought again. this time round, i took up a knife, and threatened to kill her. i dropped the knife after awhile and ran off.
i got into a lot of relationships, trying to fill the emptiness in my heart too.
at the same time, i grew further and further away from my mom and my bro and sis. i was also deep into smoking, drinking, and drugs.
and one day when i was 16, my cousin invited my to church. i refused. i struggled, and i taunted her for her "stupid" faith.
but eventually i went. and it was the first time in my life i felt so loved and cared for. for 16 years, i had never felt that way. the christians loved me, talked to me, prayed for me, and took me like their own. that was the first touch of love i got from God, through His people.
ever since then, my life changed. my bad strongholds and habits came tumbling down. slowly but surely, God's love filled me and i loved my mom again. she is a christian too now. and we can hug, talk and laugh together now. we pray tgther too!
my universe, my life has been turned around. though i was dirty and filthy, He picked me up and restored me, with His Word, His life, all because of His love done on the cross.
now i cannot help but chase after Him, tell people about Him, and serve His Kingdom andpurposes.
His love changed me. One touch from God and i am forever changed!

when i see people helping each other in times of tragedy. like during hurricane katrina and other major castrophies, people pull together much more during these times. its GOD way of saying no matter what happens on this earth he can use it for good.
