Ephesians 3:8-12.John 15:9-17
You cannot love unless you have made your home in Me: I am the Father’s love in you through My indwelling and Our Holy Spirit’s eternal Presence in and through My loving. And so it is for one and all and all together according to the Father’s will and loving purpose. Love is given as it is sought and made the linchpin of all thought and action in response the Father’s Word continually offered.
Love is both power and glory in the Father’s world wherever it is given place and time and absolute self-giving in the heart and mind of the sons and daughters of the Father’s love. And the Father, Lord of all, draws to Himself in time and through eternity all who give themselves to Love’s indwelling. Then pray for Love and put on Love, the perfect bond of unity (Colossians 3:14).
I, the Father’s Word and Love Incarnate, command you, in and through My saving Name, to love one another just as I have loved you. (John 13:34).
