The Son's Responsibility part 2
This is as simple as I can put it: "Owe nothing to anyone--except for your obligation to love one another. If you love your neighbor, you will fulfill the requirements of God's law" (Romans 13:8, NLT). Your responsibility in this life... is to live. With the understanding that to live is to love and to love is to live. The Father loves the Son. He has filled us up with His love. And we don't owe anything to anybody except to love them with the love that we are loved with. That's the New Commandment for the New Man. "So now I am giving you a new commandment: Love each other. Just as I have loved you, you should love each other" (John 13:34 NLT). Receive and release God's love. That's the Son's responsibility. That's how we experience the abundant, everlasting, eternal, Resurrection Life of God. And that's how we experience our EPIC (Eternal Purpose In Christ) destiny. We were created to be loved, and to love with that same love. To fill ourselves up to overflowing with what we've already been filled with. To let God love us and to love Him back by loving each other. That's what this life is, and that's what this life is for. So, like I always say, if you don't know what to do... do what you know. When you know and believe that you are loved... you can truly live. Because, again, to live is to love and to love is to live. They aren't just connected, they are the same thing. In order to experience God's love... we love each other. Because love is giving. You can give without loving, but you can't love without giving. So don't make it too complicated. If you don't know what to do... do what you know. Know (and believe) that you are loved, and let that love come out. Naturally. With every breath you take and every move you make. And watch this: love is maximum effort. Loving someone is literally the most you can do for someone. No greater love can a man have than to lay down his life for his friends. Glady giving everything you have and everything you are. That's love. Love is giving. Giving what you've got. Giving what God has given you. The Father loveth the Son and hath given all things into His hands. All things pertaining to life and godliness. LOVE. He has given LOVE into our hands. And since we have it, we can give it. We can experience it BY giving it. Look, if you want to "feel" something... do that thing. If you want to feel forgiven, forgiven someone. If you want to feel love... love someone! It's all about giving what you've got. Knowing you have it, believing you have it, and giving it away. That's the Son's responsibility. The Son is about His Father's business. The family business. The love business. Not just being a Kingdom consumer, but being a Kingdom exporter. I once heard a preacher say, "You are the spout where the glory comes out!" Fill yourself to overflowing (with what you've already been filled with) and experience the life of a Son who knows that His Father loves Him! Receive it and release it. Let what's inside come out by knowing and believing you have it. Owe nothing to anyone... except for your obligation to love one another.
