The lie that you love too much

The lie that you love too much.

We are created in the image of God. In fact God created Jesus in the image of man to love unconditionally and deeply all of us people. Jesus loved so much that he layed his life down for us. That my friend is the definition of loving deeply or “too much”. If we are suppose to imitate Jesus in all our ways, that means we are suppose to love selflessly too.
Part of experiencing the depth of God’s love is by experiencing rejection and hurt. Jesus was rejected by many, accepted by few, and loved by fewer. Even those who loved Jesus denied knowing him and betrayed him.
If you want to talk about pain, Jesus felt the pain of rejection from those he loved and walked in life with. So stop believing the lie satan is feeding you that you love too much. That you should stop putting your heart out there for people to crush. Yes guard your heart, be wise. But you can still love deeply and recover. Jesus died and came back to life, he now lives inside us so that we truly can heal and recover from the pain of rejection.
Love covers a multitude of sins. Love always forgives. Love keeps no records of wrongs. Love never fails. You were created with a big heart. You will have troubles in this world but take heart, the same Jesus who lives inside of you has overcome this world. The victory has already been won! So keep on loving. Keep on forgiving. Keep on allowing Jesus to mend your wounds and heal your broken heart.

I don’t know who this is for but I do know God has placed this on my heart this morning to share.
