more about love




We all know the ten Commandments, Obey your father and mother, do not covet, etc. And we all know the fruit of the spirit; Love, Joy, Peace, patience, Kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self control. But, did you know that the Bible says that thou shall love thy neighbor as thy self, and the fruit Love, are the most important of these?


Love is the most important fruit, because through love, you can find joy, you'll have peace with others, you find patience so much easier, kindness comes with love, like a toy comes with a happy meal, love is Gentle, you tend to be more faithful, and you show allot more self control!!! And the Bible states that love is the most important. I doesn't exactly say it the most important fruit, but it does say... "And above all these, put on love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony." *colossians 3 :14*


Other than loving God with all your heart, soul, strength, and mind, the most important law and command is You shall love your neighbor as yourself, "the commands, you shall not commit adultery, you shall not murder, you shall not steal, you shall not covet, and any other commandment, are summed up in this word: *you shall love your neighbor as your self" love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefor love is fulfilling the law." *Romans 13:9-10*.


if you love your neighbors as yourself, and remember that love is sacrificial action, then you wont disobey any of the commands. so as you see, love is the most important thing in the know universe, and beyond!

Love


Today, my cousin was about to play the piano, but she knew that my brother was working, and he was working close to the piano too. He kept telling her to stop, but i could tell she was about to do it any way. i knew that it was time to step in. "Penelope, you should stop." "why should i? he's never nice to us or anything!" "Because, love is sacrificial action, which means we should show love for others. even if we dont want to, or if we think they dont deserve it." That satisfied her, so she walked off.

Sacraficial action has more added to it then just that though. Its denying yourself, to help or show love.

Loving God is sacraficial action as well. Just by loving him, you could loose love ones, or even die! But its all worth it, in the end, when you get to be in Gods presence, and enjoy him for ever!

Boulder ministries


"He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, i will never be shaken." psalm 62:2

Boulder ministries is called what it is called because of this verse. God is out boulder that keeps us from drowning in our own sin. "lead me to the rock that is higher than I" is a statment that gives glory to God, because your asking for someone better than yourself... some one like God. Also, this ministry is called Boulder ministries, becuase i think it would be amazingly cool to help people in hardships. people who feel like they're drowning, by giving simple things, like meals, bibles, and encouraging 'lil notes! and thats a pretty bold commitment when your only 11! :D
