“For the love of Christ constraineth us…And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again†(2 Corinthians 5:14a-15).
Our scripture today tells what should motivate us to give, pray, and go for the cause of Christ. The love of God should compel and propel us into action. When we die to ourselves and become alive in Christ, we should have a desire to please the One Who died and rose again for us. The best way we can please Him is put our love for Him into motion. We will want to serve Him with a grateful heart. He gave His all that we might have the free gift of eternal life. Are we doing our very best for Him?
