Love Means Giving

 John 3:16  16 For God so loved the world, that he gave . . .  You can give without loving, but you can't love without giving.  When you love you will give of your time, you will give of yourself, and you will give of your resources. Those who truly love, hold nothing back.  The measure of your giving reveals the measure of your love.  Love is something we can't see, but we can see the evidence of love in the action it produces, which is giving.  If you love someone you will also give them forgiveness. Love causes you to be merciful, understanding, and forgiving.  Where you give your time and resources also reveals what you love. If we think we love someone, yet never give to them of our time or resources, then we are just deceiving ourselves.  There are many people in each of our lives who need and deserve our love.  Christ is the most deserving of all! Christ proved 
that he had love for us all, because he gave his life for you and I.
It is said there is no greater gift than a man to lay down his life for another.
Well Christ did that for you and while we were  still yet his enemies.

Are you tired of being a closet Christian??? Who at your work could say
that they know your Christian not because you have a bible on your desk
 or because you smile a lot or listen to Christian music. Can you say
that others know you are a Christian because of the love that give to others???
