Love completely!

A we continue with our series discussing 1 month to live and we are reaching the time were we say, "if you want to live with no regrets we need to learn completely." I think that it is great that we are. Smack dab in the middle of the series and we are talking about love. I think it is interesting because I believe that that's how God wants our lives to be also right in the heart of us we are guided by love . I Love how the message puts 1 john 4:8 "The person who refuses to love doesn't know the first thing about God, because God is love—so you can't know him if you don't love."

If we are choosing to live a life that is void of love because of whatever reason you want to choose we are in turn choosing to be void of God, because God is love. The teaser to our sermon this week if you want to join us is this, if you are putting off the need to forgive someone because you are waiting for them to talk to you first, that is not living a life with the mindset of numbering our days so we can gain wisdom. Or how someone else put it start counting down your days so we can make our days count. Learning to live with no regrets is to lean on the model of God which is love unconditionally. Part of learning to do this is the willingness to forgive, and to be forgiven. Spend sometime tonight making that phone call you should make to build a bridge, or hug someone that needs your encouragement, have someone over for dinner, share some kind words, invest in the people around you, and pray. Remember 1 Peter 4 when it says "The end of the world is coming soon. Therefore, be earnest and disciplined in your prayers. Most important of all, continue to show deep love for each other, for love covers a multitude of sins. Cheerfully share your home with those who need a meal or a place to stay." (1 Peter 4:7-9 NLT)

Lets start building a community of love where so we will leave this world when it is our time with no regrets!
