"God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him." - 1 John 4:16, NKJV
The first secret to loving others is to immerse yourself in a love relationship with God the Father, God the Son, and God the Holy Spirit – and abide there.
I will never get over the wonder that God the Father and God the Son do not have
a working kinship
nor a business partnership
nor a brotherly friendship
nor a competing dictatorship
nor a mandatory fellowship
nor an obligatory guardianship
but a love relationship
that has existed since before time and space! And you and I enter into that eternal sphere of unconditional love when we abide in Christ.
