And the Winner Is...Love!

How Deep The Father's Love For Us-Selah 

  

A Few more Love-Hymns...

Ascend the Hill- O, Love That Will Not Let Me Go

Love Divine, All Loves Excelling 

It would kill joy; All the anger, 

Criticism, blame’s push-shove 

Prejudiced assumptions, 

Judgments, Finger- 

pointing 

But for 

Love 

It would kill cheer; hostile slander, 

Slights of love misunderstood 

It would get the best 

Of wonder but for 

this; God 

is still 

good 

It would kill peace; pride’s cold 

shoulder, Spite’s insensitivity. 

but for this; these are no 

match for God’s love 

poured through 

You and 

me

Luke 6: 32-36 NIV

“If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? 

Even sinners love those who love them. 

33And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? 

Even sinners do that. 34And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, 

what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full.

 35But love your enemies, do good to them, 

and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. 

Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, 

because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked.

 36Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.
