##ShareGodsLove
“We're not being, asked to manufacture a fake club. We're being asked to share the love that God has already given us. God has been patient with me so I can be patient with someone else. God has forgiven me, so therefore, I have the ability to show forgiveness to others, to be... Forgive others. God showed me mercy when I did not deserve it, so I can show mercy. God loved me even when I didn't have it all together, and so I don't have to wait for someone else to come around and get it together before I show them love. God's love revealed through Christ creates love in us for other people. In other words, love, the love that we have received from God is meant to be extended to others.”

“At the end of the day, friends, this isn't about, you know, selling giving to the poor. That's not what this story is about in particular. This particular story is about responding to something that Mary saw. She saw how good God had been. She saw what Jesus had done for her, and she was overwhelmed, and it caused her to do these over the top kinds of things. We're even told in the in the story that that, even Judas, when he was saying these words, he wasn't saying them because he cared about the poor. He was saying them because he wanted to skim off the top. That's not what this story is about. This story is about noticing what God has done and then responding to it in a way that is righteous, in a way that is not not in like, not designed to win more of God's favor, just to say thank you for the favor you've already been given.”

“Just like the prodigal son that came home to the father and the father embraced him. That is our God, Ready to embrace every one of you. I do not know what you're entangled in. I don't know what you're involved in, but Jesus does. Let's get out of the rocks. Let's get out of the trample ground. Let's get out of the thorns. Let's dig in on Jesus. Today, this place is yours. This is between you and the Lord, not me. I am not God. I'm just jacked up as y'all. We need Jesus. He died for us so we can have everlasting life. Let's pray. Father, we need you desperately.”

“Generally don't have a summer that goes by that one air conditioner doesn't go down and calls us a lot of financial cost. And and even though we try to implement maintenance protocols and service service and maintenance contracts, it's just so many moving parts that things break. And so that's what the trustees are for. The trustees serve as as that particular body that answers those calls. We don't necessarily do the work, but we do facilitate and make sure the work gets done so that God's house is ordered, the lights are on, it's a safe and welcoming and inviting place.”
43s
##OverflowingGrace
“The way God has loved us becomes the model for how we are to love others. We aren't being asked to manufacture a fake kind of love. Because Christ lives in us, this love should be outpouring. Think about it for a moment. He has abundantly poured grace and mercy into our lives, and abundantly means to the overflow. And therefore, it's not that I I got a little bit. It's not that I got enough. It's I I got more than enough than I deserve and that I need, and therefore, it ought to be overflowing to other people. It should be a natural byproduct of us, being in Christ.”

##LoveIsAnAction
“This is not a passive love. Remember, love is a verb, is not just a a passive. That means that we don't just want their good, we seek their good. We don't wish them good, we seek their good. Love is a choice. Love is not just a feeling. Whenever I do premarital counseling, we talk about that, that love is a choice because sometimes you don't feel like loving someone. It's, you know, you might be having a bad day. You don't feel about love... They might be having a day... Bad day, and and you don't feel like loving them. But guess what? You choose to love even when you don't feel like it.”
47s
##LoveLikeChrist
“Let's think for a moment. Were we deserving of God's love when he gave it to us? Absolutely not. Are we deserving now? Absolutely not. Are are we good enough people? No. Can we earn God's love? No. And so, and who are we then who... Who's received this great mercy, this great grace from God, this amazing grace? Who are we to say, you know what, enough's enough. That's our nature, but that is not God's nature. That is not His character. And if we are in Christ and we are supposed to be like Christ, we're supposed to becoming more like Christ, then we too should love like Christ.”

##AlwaysLove
“And so, the first thing we see on our sheet is this, we never stop owing love to the people around us. We never stop owing love to the people around us. We see that verse eight, love isn't a debt that we get to mark paid in full. We are supposed to pay off every other debt, but when it when it comes to love, we are to deliberately remain in debt to love. I I loved them yesterday. Guess what? I still owe them love today. I showed them kindness last week. Guess what? I still owe them love today. I've been patient with them repeatedly, but guess what? I still owe them love today.”
31s
##SeekTheirGood
“For example, I don't hurt them, I don't steal from them, I don't mistreat them, then I must be loving toward them. That's not the end. That's not it. If that's all we see, then we're missing it. Biblical love goes further than that. As I already said, biblical love isn't merely I don't wanna hurt them, it asks, how can I actively seek their good? It's not passive, it's how can I actively seek their good? So we're not simply trying to become people that don't mistreat our neighbor. I think that's a given.”
57s
##HolySpiritLove
“how are we really... How are we really gonna love someone that's hard to love? How does that play out in our lives practically? And I'll say this, there's times when the only thing that will help you love a person is the power of the Holy Spirit. And it is hard to not love someone. It's hard to have hard feelings towards someone when we've been praying for them. I didn't I didn't say just praying that they will do what I want, what I think they should do, that they should change according to what I think. Is we're praying that God will intervene in this situation, and that God will also give me the right attitude perspective on that person. Because, honestly, until the Holy Spirit gets involved, it's just our nature, and our nature is not gonna love.”
