Loving difficult people

Loving difficult people
1 John 4:7-21
Mat 22:36-40
Do you want to look like you're heavenly Father? Love people that don't love you back.
Our love should abound more and more.

How do grow your love?
1) You've got to understand Gods love for you.
1 John 4:19
Eph 3:14-19
Prov 19:22
2) Understand the nature of Gods love...His very essence is love. You can't earn it! If you don't read the Word as much He won't love you less, you just won't have the victory you could have had.
3) You have Gods love inside of you already.
"God grant me a new revelation of your love that you have already poured over us."
4) Love like you've never been hurt. Don't harbor offense and bitterness because you won't be able to love others fully.
Mat 18:7
Job 42:10
5) Learn to love with Gods love

Love them into the Kingdom of God!

Sermon notes from Citw

Joy to the world the Lord has come Based on psalm 98 God’s promises are truly,  unlike men's promises. His second coming is at hand. 2 Peter 3:9-11 He's waiting for us to speed the Gospel. We are stewards of the mysteries. Have you been faithful in that stewardship? Live a life of evangelism. Share the Gospel. Christmas is a good time to also celebrate Christ's second coming. The celebration has been twisted by Satan to become commercialized and a frantic,  stressful time. The Lord's second coming should not be a fearful awaiting... Stashing food and weapons... But you should love His appearing. Rev 21:4-5 1 Cor 15:58 Rev 20:9 Always examine your life in light of his return. Acts 1:11 Live with intensity. Are you going to live knowing that Jesus could come back this year? Will you live this new year like you lived this past year? If so, you're likely to get the same result. The saved are born twice and die once and are raised in the first resurrection...
Today at work, I was searching for a solution to a project, regarding calculating of shipping to Canada with Google Checkout, and was browsing in FireFox, with some search results open in a window. I was then about to open up an Internet Explorer window, which had some examples to resolve the issue at hand, though in XML code, which was different than what I use at work, but felt in my hear not to open that window, but to continue searching in FireFox. After continuing to search in FireFox, the next search result I opened included an example to Canada with the code which I use. Weeeeoeoeoeooewoowowowowowowoow owwoowowowo. Obedience to the Lord is woowowowowoowowoeooeooeooewoowo eowoowoeoowowwwowowowo awesome.

Today

Today David my brother in law who is visiting us for the summer, found a ticket on the train to Chicago. Soon after we arrived and left the train, a man came up asking for help in buying a ticket for the train. David had one! Praise God that this you g man now had this ticket, as God provides opportnities like this to impact the world in a positive way. Mom Reyes, my mom in law, told me a story about a homeless veteran who died outside in the winter months in Alexandria. She said that he was offered help and was off the streets for six months, but after that time he was back homeless. Mom said that the man, Jimmy, may have had trouble with his mind. He may have had trouble keeping a job in his state of mind. That's tragic.
