Because

Because

Because...
“...He (God) first loved us.”
       1 John 4:19

I will...love God

Because...
“...God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, 
that whoever believes in Him should not perish 
but have everlasting life.”  
John 3:16

I will...have faith in Christ, faith in God

Because...
Jesus when asked, 
“Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?” 
   Jesus replied: 
“ ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’  
                This is the first and greatest commandment.  
             And the second is like it: 
        ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’  
      All the Law and the Prophets 
hang on these two commandments.” 
       Matthew 22:36-40

I will...love my God and my neighbour.

Because...
Jesus said,“You have heard that it was said, 
‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’  
But I tell you: Love your enemies 
and pray for those who persecute you,” 
Matthew 5:43,44

I will...love my enemies and pray for my persecutors.

Because...
“Love is patient, love is kind. 
It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud.  
It is not rude, 
it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.  
It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 
   Love never fails....
 And now these three remain: 
faith, hope and love. 
But the greatest  of these is love.”  
1Corinthians 13:4-8a,13

I will...I will love unconditionally.

                   Dear Reader

                                       Please think about it.
