Imperfect beings such as us cannot understand Perfect Love, this is why we exist – to Grow in it. Growing in Perfect Love is Growing in Faith (Rest) in Who God Is and how He feels about us.
Its ok to love imperfectly – we are imperfect – but don’t be afraid to say “I am sorry” and learn to love to a greater degree from that experience. This includes our lack of love for ourselves especially as this is the starting point for all other love.
As we begin to love to a greater degree we find that fear begins to leave us and life begins to open up in a whole new way. This whole new way is called “Abundant Life” and this is what Christ came to provide for us.
Christ taught us this by – Loving and Accepting All who He met without treating them differently based on the life they lived.
Christ taught us this by – Forgiving All that He met no matter how badly they treated Him and what they did to Him.
Christ taught us this by – Being “the end of the law” as Christ was “the second Adam” and through Him and by Faith in Him and His Gift to us “All things become new.”
