out of love

[beloved001]

Since God is love and so we r supposed to love each other. Recently I realize that for years the good things i m doing for church and for friends mostly r out of responsiblity, I feel that is my duty , But --- i have no love inside it. I dont really care most things from my deep heart.So afterwards what i v done r all meaningless.

The psychologist i m talking lately, she tells me the problem comes from the too much sacrifice i did for people. The people around me always see a smiling helping person but they don't know who I m. And I m unbalanced energy already , she says I need to release a lot inner energy........I m reading a few books suggestd by doctor which is helping to build up the character, but still very very slow. It has been too long time in this way without real change.
I m curious How did God change u from a cold hearted to a warm hearted ? Where is the sun to shine into the cracks and if it possible? What is love or is it just some skills like art?........so many questions with no anwers.....

Some friends always tell me to meditate on Jesus, Jesus came to sacrifice, the meaning of His sacrifice. But i feel it is His duty,He is supposed to fix this. And basically I always feel closer to God, far to Jesus.----it is complicated

Dear beloved001. There is a right, and quite easy way. Treat others, everybody you know and everybody you meet, just as you like to be treated. Be friendly, give a nice smile, and a helping hand if necessary. To be friendly is not too hard, to smile will make you feel better, and to show willing to give a hand, or an ear. Don`t make people to ask your help, wait until you are asked, and do not always fall over yourself to be used for any little thing. Let your love grow again. Ask for help yourself. People will notice if you give them a chance, let your smile come from a loving and happy person, not to be forced, or even false and tired. I say this humbly and with love, beloved. Greetings from Emmy, sister in Christ.

There are many folks that have this same problem. The best place to find them is in the worldly church. These are the very hardest folks to witness to because they think they are above it. They play church. A very evil game that drives many souls away.




Now if you are ready to shed this skin, find that LOVE, and really turn to GOD to be part of the KINGDOM of ALMIGHTY GOD you MUST GIVE IT ALL TO GOD.






GOD demands that you give HIM your WHOLE heart, mind, strength, and soul. That means you go in prayer and tell GOD that you will do this and from that moment on seek GOD in all your decisions. After this is complete GOD will know. For HE searches the heart. HE will then send HIS HOLY SPIRIT ( ANOINTED-BORN AGAIN- SAVED ). For it is then that you shall receive the MISSION GOD has for just you and supply all your needs, even what you have not the ability to have.






Pick up GOD'S ROAD MAP to the KINGDOM of ALMIGHTY GOD ( BIBLE ) and start reading the NEW TESTIMENT till the next time you read it you will already know what IT'S going to say. For then it's locked in your heart to draw from for the rest of your life. You will NEVER be sorry you did.






Do yourself a BIG FAVOR and Start right now!!!

Maybe its just perspective. When you are doing things, do them as unto the Lord. If you view things like cleaning the church or helping out a friend as doing them for the Lord rather than you're just doing a chore that's a much different perspective than you're doing it for that person. Of course whoever you are helping will then see a difference in your actions as it will shine through. Remember when we do things as a Christian, others are watching, so we have to be a good example of Christ's love working in us.

And remember, we're all works in progress. I have days when I'm "cold hearted" still, but I continue to work on myself and pray and go to church and read the Bible all trying to learn more and improve myself, with God's help.

Ive learned that very important is not to over stretch yourself, but most importantly your relationship with the Lord needs to be strong first, you need to be studying to show yourself approved.

 

[Johnnz]

We learn to love by loving others. That was the new commandment. Love is self giving. But it is painful too. When we really love people we come to know their pain and struggles.

The feelings of coldheartedness? Talk to the ladies in church who will listen to you about it. The true believers will listen to you, and will be happy to help you through prayer, study, counsel, or whatever will work. The fellowship with thte other ladies in the Lord will warm you up to what god wants you to do, and over time, you'll know that God sees what you do, the church will appreciate what you do, and you'll have joy in your heart while you do what you do.

People get the Love of God through the Spirit of Christ. God does not ask for service, but for faith and from the Spirit of Faith comes good deeds naturally.

Be careful about the religious who demand sacrifice and the doing of deeds and do not appreciate the grace of Jesus Christ. If you believe the words of Jesus, He says you get His reward. And likewise with the prophets and apostles. Contemplate on that: are these people telling the truth, and if so, what reward should you expect.

You should expect joy in your heart and true peace, and a wonderful life: God gives us testing and difficult times with that, but the heart is true and where real religion is practiced. The real religion is not one of deeds "for God" (no one can do anything for the Almighty God) but is through the Living Spirit of God sanctifying you already.

Be sure and forgive everyone you have anything against. If you resent people for "forcing" you to "do deeds for God", forgive them and escape that situation.

What is love or is it just some skills like art?

Love is the capacity to value , respect , esteem , appreciate , the life of another / others even above and beyond our own .

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. <-----> John 15:13

And I will very gladly spend and be spent for you; though the more abundantly I love you, the less I be loved. <-----> 2nd Corinthians 12:15

But none of these things move me, neither count I my life dear unto myself, so that I might finish my course with joy, and the ministry, which I have received of the Lord Jesus, to testify the gospel of the grace of God. <-----> Acts 20:24

Love is the antitheses of selfishness .

Herein is love, not that we loved God, but that he loved us, and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins.
Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.
No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwells in us, and his love is perfected in us. <-----> 1st John 4:10-12

Our capacity of love is a gift of God's Love , and that capacity is enlarged to it's fullness through continued application .

In Galatians 5:6 we're told , " faith works by love " .

This tells me , that I can't believe solely for myself ... I have to believe for the sake of others also .

And for their sakes I sanctify myself, that they also might be sanctified through the truth. <-----> John 17:19 ( Words of Jesus )

Put on therefore, as the elect of God, holy and beloved, bowels of mercies, kindness, humbleness of mind, meekness, longsuffering;
Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye.
And above all these things put on charity, which is the bond of perfectness. <-----> Colossians 3:12-14

Charity is what love inspires !

It's a state of mind , where good will towards all thrives !

It's an eagerness to be helpful with whatever talents one may find !

It's a motivation to be gracious , merciful , and kind !

It's the soul of Heaven's Harmony , and Nature of The Divine !

It's what ties us all together , and keeps us all in line !

It's the reason for Creation , and the end of time !

It's the Spirit within a miracle , the dead who do not die !

After The Image of Christ Himself , Who Is The Image of God !

May The Lord Be Pleased to Bless !

"It is by God's grace that you have been saved through faith. It is not the result of your own efforts, but God's gift, so that no one can boast about it."

Ephesians 2:8-9

Basically it doesn't matter how much good works you do, but rather it's by God's grace you have been saved. No matter how good we can be, we can never match up with God's standard. Thankfully Jesus came and died for us on the cross that through Jesus we received salvation from God.

We can never earn salvation, but salvation is a free gift from God although it's not cheap.

Would it be easier to repent and come back to God and focus onto Him than to focus so much on dealing with the problem itself? Because the more you pay attention to the problem, the more complicated it gets. Rather just praise God for who He is and He'll lift you up and the problem will be a small matter.

In addition, when you do God's work, it is not because it's our duty as Christians, but because we love God and we want to serve him whole-heartedly. This is where we receive joy from God as we serve Him. God is always cheering for you all the time. So don't worry, be happy! Start cheering for yourself and I can tell you, you will see wonderful things God is going to show you! Good luck and God bless!

I know all these knowledge. I even once lead a bible study. but i myself in this situation"And if I give all my goods to the poor, and if I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it is of no profit to me."
Today i realize I lost my heart.

Even Jesus took a break from ministering to the multitude .

And when he had sent them away, he departed into a mountain to pray. <-----> Mark 6:46

Sometimes it's good to shift our focus away from reaching out , towards being recharged within .

Doesn't mean we've quit ... only that we've taken a leave of absence .

May The Lord Be Pleased !

If you have been ANOINTED by GOD with HIS HOLY SPIRIT ( BORN-AGAIN-SAVED ) you would be feeding on the REAL FOOD. You lack knowledge of this and what IT will do for you:






1 JohnChapter 2







20 But you have the anointing that comes from the holy one, and you all have knowledge.

21 I write to you not because you do not know the truth but because you do, and because every lie is alien to the truth.



26 I write you these things about those who would deceive you.





27 As for you, the anointing that you received from him remains in you, so that you do not need anyone to teach you. But his anointing teaches you about everything and is true and not false; just as it taught you, remain in him.




This is what you need to strive for in your faith. The rest will take care of itself. Then GOD HIMSELF will answer your questions as HE becomes your TEACHER.






Remember If you are going to be part of the KINGDOM of ALMIGHTY GOD you MUST GIVE IT ALL TO GOD.



GOD demands that you give HIM your WHOLE heart, mind, strength, and soul. That means you go in prayer and tell GOD that you will do this and from that moment on seek GOD in all your decisions.
