Worship Excerpt from the Sermon Journal, Monday, August 6, 2018 Written by Pastor Tom Harrison I Belong Where I Give and Receive Love Jesus didn’t come to give us more laws and rules to follow. We can’t keep the ones we already have. Our greatest need is to be loved. Our music reflects this, “What the world needs now is love, sweet love.” The Beatles sang, “All you need is love.” Another song has this line, “Looking for love in all the wrong places.” So much of our music focuses upon “eros” (erotic, sensual or sexual love). While eros has its role, it is insufficient. We need something more than romance. Regardless of our romantic status, we all need love, acceptance and forgiveness. The Lord offers to us unmerited favor. We call it “grace.” Grace is not earned. Grace is given to us when we don’t deserve it. Probably the world’s most meaningful song is “Amazing Grace.” Grace helps us see our need. Grace tells us even though we don’t deserve it, we are loved just as we are. Grace changes everything.
Something to Think About: There is a time and place for all four “loves” found in the biblical Greek language (“eros,” = sensual, “philios” = friendship, “storge” = family, “agape” = God’s love). Because we have been loved, accepted and forgiven by God through Jesus Christ, we help others know this love, acceptance and forgiveness, too. Do you believe God loves you unconditionally? If so, what difference does that make in your life and how are you helping others experience it?
