In his letter to the Galatian brethren (Gal. 5:6 ASV), the inspired penman, Paul wrote: “For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love.”<\/p>\n
The above text teaches us that to “work through love” is to work from a principle of love. If we love God, we seek to please Him and to do His will (Matthew 7:21; 1 John 3:22). Our faith in God motivates us to love God because He “first” loved us (1 John 4:19). Our love for our fellow man motivates us to do good to our fellow man as well as to our fellow Christians (Gal. 6:10).<\/p>\n
I confess to being the kind of person who listened to country music when “country wasn’t cool.” Some of the lyrical content is terrible, but some of it preaches truth to people who won’t listen to preachers. A case in point is Clint Black’s song, “Love is Something That We Do.”<\/p>\n
In the song, Clint makes the point that love is not just someplace we fall; it’s something that we do<\/strong>. I couldn’t agree more. We as Christians should be desirous of “doing” something in the Lord’s kingdom to demonstrate our love for Him (James 1:22-25). The following suggestions are provided:<\/p>\n The closing lyrics of Clint Black’s song should reflect our attitude of desiring to “do” something in the Lord’s kingdom:<\/p>\n “There’s no request too big or small, Brethren, there is much to “do” in the kingdom of God. Don’t sit by and “wait” for an assignment (Matthew 20:1-16).<\/p>\n Remember……<\/p>\n Love Is Something That We Do!<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In his letter to the Galatian brethren (Gal. 5:6 ASV), the inspired penman, Paul wrote: “For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision availeth anything, nor uncircumcision; but faith working through love.” The above text teaches us that to “work through love” is to work from a principle of love.
