Love can move mountains

Oh, the sweet mercy and grace of the Lord. I can’t even put into words what it means to me. The Lord would be utterly justified if He decided to destroy this world right now, and in all honesty, I can understand why.
The wickedness of the world is fully apparent right now. It’s like the enemy is raging. Satan is trying to cause as much pain and division as possible. He wants us to get mad at each other and become separate.
Together, we have power.
So, he creates things to cause us to fight and hate each other. As long as we are made and consumed by hate, we can’t pray or love others. The world is still standing because of our prayers and God’s mercy.
God hears our pleas as we beg Him to save our loved ones. That’s the only thing that matters.
At the end of our lives, I believe there will only be two things that really matter to me: my salvation and the salvation of my family. Those things determine eternity for me and those I love.
If that’s what will ultimately matter to me, then I want it to matter to me more than anything else every day. Therefore, I want to love others like Jesus loves them. I want to do my best to show them the Lord if they are watching me. I want them to feel loved by me.
God is love. Therefore, we can only reach another person and tell them about Jesus through love. I know this because I tried other ways. I quoted scripture and tried to tell others how wrong they were in their beliefs. But the comment I received back broke me into pieces.
I don’t like your God.
Talk about tearing me into pieces and completely breaking my heart. I misrepresented God so badly that instead of leading someone to the Lord, I turned them away from Him.
I’ve never been the same since that day. I sat with the Lord daily and asked Him how to help me mend my relationship and show them a correct representation of Him. God didn’t give me a long list of things to do or scriptures to recite. He simply told me to love them. That’s it.
We undervalue the gift and power of God’s LOVE. It can move mountains and change things.
Those wrapped in the clutches of the enemy don’t need me to fight with them; they need me to pray for them and love them.
So, anytime I need to fight about something or think I need to stand up for my Lord. I ask Him what I need to do. And the answer has stayed the same. Love is the answer.
