SPONTANEOUS LOVE

The evidence of our love for God is the absolute spontaneity of our love, which flows naturally from His nature within us. And when we look back, we will not be able to determine why we did certain things, but we can know that we did them according to the spontaneous nature of His love in us. ~ Oswald Chambers
 
Our service for others will be futile and burdensome unless it springs from an overflowing heart -- overflowing with the love of God. When God satisfies our soul-hunger, then we'll not be able to contain our acts of love done in Jesus name. ~ Come Away My Beloved
 
It is impossible to have this love unless God helps us set aside our own natural desires so that we can love and not expect anything in return. Thus, the more we become like Christ, the more love we will show to others. (I Corinthians 13:4 NLT)
 
Love never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance. (1 Corinthians 13:7 NLT)
 
"Lord, help me to use acts of your spontaneous love to bring hope and joy to someone you put in my path today. Amen."
