For 1 am persuaded beyond doubt (am sure) .that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities, nor things impending and threatening nor things to come, nor powers, Nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creationwill be able to separate us from the love of God Which
is in Christ jesus our Lord. (ROMANS 8:38-39)
To fully understand all the different facets of love, we must talk about the two kinds of love: the God-kind of love and man’s love.
Man’s love fails, gives up; but God’s love does not. Man’s love is finite, comes to an end; but God’s love is infinite and eternal. Man’s love is dependent on favorable behavior and circumstances; God's love is not. People place conditions on their love, but God’s is unconditional.
LOVE IS UNCONDITIONAL
But God shows and clearly proves His [own] love for us by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ (the Messiah, the Anointed One) died for us. (ROMANS 5:8)
According to God’s Word, He loved us before the world was formed, before we loved Him or believed in Him or had ever done anything either good or evil.
God does not require us to earn His love, and we must not
require others to earn ours. We must realize that love is something .We are to become. it is not something we do and then don’t do, we cannot turn it on and off, depending on who we want to give it to and how they are treating us.
As believers in jesus Christ, the love we are to manifest to the world is the unconditional love of God flowing through us to them. we don’t receive God’s love and then try to give them ours. Our love has conditions and limits; His does not.
Loving people unconditionally is a very big challenge. I would be tempted to say it is impossible, but since God tells us to do it, surely He must have a way for us to do it. He never commands us to do something and then leaves us to perform it on our own. He does not throw us the football, so to speak, and then say, “Now you make the touchdown." His grace (His power, ability and favor as we have said previously) is sufficient for us (2 Corinthians 12:9).
meaning that He enables us to do what He has called us to do.
some times we pray to be able to love the unlovely, and then do our best to avoid every unlovely person God sends our way. Some
People are sent into our lives for the sole purpose of being sandpa~ per to us.Not only do others have rough edges, but so do we. Learning to walk in love with unlovely pe0ple and learning to be patient in trials are Probably the two most important tools God uses to develop our Spiritual maturity.
Believe it or not, all those obnoxious people in our lives help us. They sharpen and refine us for God’s use.
LOVE IS BEYOND MERE KNOWLEDGE
I That you may really come] to know (practically, through experience for yourselves ] the love of Christ, which far surpasses mere knowledge [without experience].
(EPHESIANS 3:19)
We cannot understand the God-kind of love With our minds. As we have seen in Ephesians 3:19, it far surpasses mere knowledge. Often it seems unfair. If we try to reason it out, we will surely
lose it.
I can find no real reason why God should love me and use me in His kingdom. If I look for reasons to love others, I will probably not find a great number of people I can love. But God does not operate that way; He doesn’t look for people who are worthy of His love. His love is unconditional. He looks for people who are in need of His love. That’s why He chose me and you.
Unconditional love unselfishly loves selfish people, generously gives to stingy people and continually blesses unappreciative people.
Unconditional love thinks long range. It sees what people an become if only someone will love them. it is stronger than anything else; it can reach into and bring healing to places that no natural medicine could ever reach.
It was definitely the love of God that overcame the evil in my life, that changed me and drew me into a deep relationship with Him. It is that same love flowing through us to others that will change them.
**text:Romans12:21
do not let yourself be conquered by the evil,but keep conquering the evil with the goodLoving people unconditionally is a good thing, and according to Romans 12:21, it is with good that we are to overcome evil. Change takes time, and we must be willing to suffer with another through those difficult times of being transformed.
Because Dave loved me unconditionally. he was willing to suffer with me while God was changing me. I had never seen real love. I did not even know what it was. Everyone who ever said they
loved me had hurt me and used me. I needed to see love; just hearing the words was not sufficient.
Most people who are hard to love have suffered so much pain along the road of life that it has altered their personality. Outwardly they may seem hard and bitter, but inwardly they are crying out for love.
That was the case with me. Outwardly I acted as ifl needed no one, yet inwardly I was starving for love.

Love is a quality that all Christians should possess, this is because love conquers all. If only we know the true meaning of the word L-O-V-E and practice it the world would be a better place.

In unconditional love , satisfaction comes from putting someone else first and prioritizing their health and happiness with no expectation of reward for yourself.

This is the love of God is unconditional and without limits, ethereal and infinite He does not measure to love us that is the only true love. That of man is with coping as explicastes has end and not as long as the word of God says that the love of God casts out fear and so is his eternal love gives us strength and hope to continue since he loves us without any condition amen for this word.
