The power of love


“Anyone who claims to be in the light but hates a brother or sister is still in the darkness. Anyone who loves their brother and sister lives in the light, and there is nothing in them to make them stumble.”
1 John 2:9-10 NIV

I love technology. I am fascinated daily by how technology is completely changing my world and your world. It's the world of robots, data being the new oil and the internet of things. We are living in the most exciting times in human history. 

However , questions about privacy , security, trust and ethics increasingly come into play. The mystery of "protecting humans from humans". 

It's not really about ethics , trust , security or privacy ; it's about the absence of love. Look with me on these scripture that I love dearly : 

“........The law code—don’t sleep with another person’s spouse, don’t take someone’s life, don’t take what isn’t yours, don’t always be wanting what you don’t have, and any other “don’t” you can think of—finally adds up to this: Love other people as well as you do yourself. You can’t go wrong when you love others. When you add up everything in the law code, the sum total is love.”Romans 13:8-10 MSG

Love is the most powerful force in the world , love is God living inside us: this is the power of our gospel! The more you understand how much God loves you , the more you realize the power of loving others. 

Love is transforming; when a person like you realize that you're still accepted by God, it does nothing less than making you accept everyone around you regardless of who they are or what they have done. 

Love is contagious; when they realize that you love them , they can't help but love their world. The replicating effect goes on and on , we will only realize in eternity the impact of us choosing to live the lover's life. 

Love is timeless; with all the changes going on in the world and human lives , what remains common is the progress that comes as we choose to do it all in love. We don't need faith when we get to heaven(now we see Him face to face) , we hope for nothing for all that we hoped for is now here , all that remains is that liquid love of the Father flowing in us!! What a privilege we have that we can foretaste that coming world through the Holy Spirit and pass this supernatural way of love into our broken society. 

Choose the lover's life. Choose to love genuinely to the end. 

Remember : You are dearly loved by God
