JESUS IS THE ANSWER

Dear readers,

It's very disheartening to have a leader who may be a " Christian " for many years, but still walks in the counsel of the ungodly.
This is why when we choose a leader, it is of utmost important to be able to choose a good one.
Now, how then can we choose a good leader , or what are the attributes of a " Good " leader.
The most important aspect is " Love " - love for God and mankind; for justice ( Ps. 37:28 ), righteousness and peace.
A man who seeks GOD FIRST ( Matt. 6:33 ), and eschew evil.
A man who delights in the law of the Lord, and in His law he meditates day and night. ( Ps. 1:2 ; John 14:15 )
A man who delights in the Lord; commit his way to the Lord and Trust in Him. ( Ps. 37:4,5 )

DO YOU LOVE ME?? * FEED MY LAMBS * TEND MY SHEEP * FEED MY SHEEP.
YOU SHALL LOVE THE LORD YOUR GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART ,WITH ALL YOUR SOUL AND WITH ALL YOUR MIND.
LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOUR AS YOURSELF. MATT.22:37,39

What is love???
The definition of love as defined in a Macmillan dictionary a to be strongly attracted to someone in as emotional and sexual way; to care very much about someone and like or enjoy something.
This definition is not wrong in itself, but it is has a very shallow connotation ( meaning ); a secular sense of understanding.
Some people would like to define love as being able to give; to help someone in need,and to relate deeply in spirit, body and mind ( deeper sense; or more matured )
However, I love the definition as given in the " Word of God " best as it is brings out the TRUE essence of what LOVE is all about.
This is found in the book of 1 Cor. 13. It is being describe as : -
Love suffers long and is kind;
love does not envy ;
love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;
does not behave rudely,
does not seek its own,
is not provoked,
thinks no evil;
does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoice in truth;
bears all things,
believes all things,
endured all things.
Love never fails.
Think through the whole definition, analyse them one at a time, and apply it in our lives( most difficult thing to do- but, nothing is impossible, if we perserve, and put our hearts, mind and soul to it; with the strength of God. )
May we be able to show this kind of LOVE to one another.
Jesus has demonstrated that to us; by HIS DEATH ON THE CROSS.
May we learn from His example.

"GREATER LOVE HAS NO MAN THAN THIS, THAN TO LAY DOWN ONE'S LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS.' John 15:13
