Unbridled Love
 
"If you love only those who love you, why should you get credit for that? Even sinners love those who love them!" Luke 6:32 (NLT)
 
To bridle something is to put restraints on it, to place a limit on how far something will go or reach. It is unfortunate that too many of God's children put restraints on their love. They would probably never say it out loud, and perhaps have convinced themselves they would never do such a thing, but their actions declare something much different.
 
The earmark of a Christian is to be the love they show for one another and the lost of this world. Jesus was clear, if we only love those who love us back, we are no different than sinners. Loving those who refuse to love us back is not easy, but it is what we are called to do. Martin Luther King, Jr once said, "Agape is disinterested love. Agape does not begin by discriminating between worthy and unworthy people, or any qualities people possess. It begins by loving others for their sakes. Therefore, agape makes no distinction between friend and enemy; it is directed toward both." An agape love is a godly love that surpasses emotional sentiment and loves by choice. Choose to love those who do not love you back, and in doing so you will proclaim the reality of Jesus Christ on earth today! Love the world around you with a selfless godly love as Jesus did, and you will change the world around you forever, just as Jesus did!
 
"But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners." Romans 5:8 (NLT)
