Love Requires A Sacrifice!!!

       He makes No effort to love me?

Ephesians 5:25

Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;

ef·fort

a vigorous or determined attempt.

If a man wont love its a choice because you have to choose to love someone or spend time with them. Honestly God ask you to love your wives but you have to desire to do it. Love takes effort! Yet people can tell if your not putting effort into something. When you love something you make time when a man loves sports he makes time to enjoy his sports... goes for anything. You take time for it you want it to grow. so why cant make effort in loving your wife? Because anything not loved dies and you will kill your relationship. Full of excuses because you just refuse to take the time to make the effort






Stop telling me you love me and do it!

James 2:14-26



14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

Faith without works is dead. Just like love without Actions isn't love. Just love me was my reply. Silent pause with no reply. Oh its because you can't you never could. Your love stopped being actions a long time ago. People will say they love you but their actions don't line up with there words. They will say that they care but when you really need them they aren't there. I dont remember the last time I could actually pick up the phone and count on you being there to get sometype of advice. Whens the last time you actually not just said i love you but did i love you? When's the last time you actually loved someone? Not just with words but with your actions. I am so tired oh hearing I will never stop loving you ugh yes because you stop acting in love towards me so you did because love is an action and the day you stopped acting in love towards me is the day you stopped loving me.

You're Love is None of 

These! 

1 Corinthians 13:4-8

4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.

Love is! Patient! Patients is something you have to have its an action! Like I said before love is something you do. Love is kind you are not kind. Love is something you do. Love is not proud. Love is love is love is. It can become easy to question someones love their love is none of what it should be. People want things to be easy and simple but love is not just some popcorn you put in the microwave for easy living love takes time patient and effort. You can't master love and all it means overnight no one can but the point is you gotta make some-type of changes to love. 

                                                If you love me make the sacrifice to love me!                                                

John 21:15-19 When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?“Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.”16 Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.”Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”17 The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?”Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.”Jesus said, “Feed my sheep. 18 Very truly I tell you, when you were younger you dressed yourself and went where you wanted; but when you are old you will stretch out your hands, and someone else will dress you and lead you where you do not want to go.”19 Jesus said this to indicate the kind of death by which Peter would glorify God. Then he said to him, “Follow me!”

sacrifice

: the act of giving up something that you want to keep especially in order to get 

Love requires a sacrifice! All love! When a mother has a baby she will stop her old ways to love her child to meet the needs of her child. When a man marries a woman he is to make the sacrifice to do what he has vowed to do which is to love that woman! Alot of the time people don't want to give up things in order to love they rather hold on to there old ways and habits then to love. Well that is not love because any and all love requires a sacrifice. A sacrifice of your time, your emotion, your life! You may have to give up certain things but its okay its part of a transition in life. Yet in order to love you and in order to transition you have to make the sacrifice to love!
