Love Is Demonstrated in The Time of Adversity
Do you know that it is very possible to profess love to another person when times are good? But how many persons can hold onto their vows when times are bad?
Jesus asked Peter thrice, ‘’Love you Me more than these?’’ The same Peter who said he will never deny Jesus denied Him when He was persecuted, not only that, he threw away all that Jesus had invested in his life and went back into his fishing business. It is easy to love a person when they meet your needs or do what you want but it is
very difficult to still love them when they really offend you or when they are in trouble.
What kind of love do you express in various situations of life to the one you love?
True love does not change come rain or shine but the latter three is conditional and
selfish. In many marriages today, it is easy for newlyweds to exchange marital vows but few months into the marriage, they fail to mean their vows.
Paul elaborated the illimitable dimension of the love God has for us in Romans 8:35-39.
In times of troubles, problems, hunger, lack, want, no good clothes, danger, death and
so on; would you still express love to the one you profess love to? Would you still love God when He does not answer your prayer or He delays in giving you what you need?
Would you love your partner or friend when they walk in the valley of the shadow of death or you’re only a fair-weather friend?
