The Lord’s love has no end and no limit

We love because he first loved us. (1 John 4:19 NIV)

  Although to love one another is a commandment from the Lord, the love that He gives us in order to do so is a reward, because it’s His wonderful love for us that enables us to pour out His love upon others. That warm, secure, abundant, heart-to-heart love—that He rewards us with when we open ourselves to Him and receive it—is so great that we lose none of it by sharing it, and it continues to pour forth all over us and others.
 The Lord has given us a whole handbook in His Word for how to love. He commissions each of us to grow in our love for others. We must be touched ourselves with His love so that we may in turn touch others. We must allow His Spirit to work in and through us to help us to understand another person’s heart.
 The Lord’s love has no end and no limit, and His Word says that one day the knowledge of Him and His love will cover the whole earth just like the waters cover the sea.
 How do we overflow with His love? It starts with looking to Him and drawing nigh to Him, and seeking Him and putting Him first in our lives—loving Him with our whole heart. —Maria Fontaine [1]

 Charity, a word that comprises love and justice, may well be the most sublime of all Christian virtues. —Diana Butler Bass
