The Mystery of Love
To understand the mystery of love is to understand God and His way of love; Who cares for the good and the bad, for the godly and ungodly, for the righteous and the unrighteous. He desires all to live this way because God is Love and Love is God to us all. We will surely have everything good when we live in His Love in everything.
The Scripture says, "Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love" - I John 4:7-8.
