Communication of Love

“But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” Romans 5:8.

When we were created we were never meant to walk alone. God provided a bridge of communication for which we may all approach Him sinless, pure and reconciled. This bridge was Jesus who was sent to earth to take the place of sin in order that man could fellowship with God. Why do we question God’s love and build these mysterious barriers of communication with God?

We choose people to love in our own lives such as a partner or a child. Out of our love we long for someone in whom to place that love. We don’t withhold until that person is perfect but rather love in spite of their own imperfections. We learn to love over their flaws and accept them into our lives in fellowship and relationship.

There are many means of communication when entering into a relationship with someone. We communicate through our words, our actions, our beliefs and sometimes through others. If we hate something, it will be known. If we love something it will be shown. The same was with Christ Jesus. He came as our example and communicated many things through His life, death and resurrection.

Through His life, He communicated how to walk through life, how to live and how to love.

Through His death, He communicated how to surrender and to sacrifice.

Through His resurrection, He communicated how to believe, how to hope and how to receive eternal life.

God would not have shown us this great love if He didn’t want to fellowship and talk to us. His sacrifice was not in vain and provides an open and eternal bridge for which we can know Him, hear from Him and return His love.
