“God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.”

– John 4:16b

February has long been considered the month of love. God’s word has a lot to say on that subject. 1 John 4:8 tells us quite plainly, “God is love”. Elsewhere in the Bible, God’s love is described as unceasing, unchanging, unfailing, unselfish, merciful, steadfast, kind, gracious, tender, and faithful. As His children, we’re called to love that same way.

The Bible uses the words for love hundreds of times, and in case we still didn’t get the message, our Father spelled it out quite plainly—and beautifully—for us in 1 Corinthians. “Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.”

That’s a pretty tall order for mere mortals like us. But remember, when God calls us to do something, He stands ready to equip us to do it. We love God because He first loved us, and we love others with a love that comes straight from Him. Whether it’s love for your “special Valentine” this month or love for a neighbor, coworker, family member, friend, or stranger, God is ready and fully capable of empowering you to love others like He loves us.
