It was love that caused little Dora to want to help her mother. She loved her mother because her mother loved her so Dora did what she could for her mother.
How this reminds those who know and believe that Jesus loves them, that there should be this same response, and we should delight to live for and serve our blessed Lord. We know there will be a measure of desire to be in His presence and work for Him, if there is real belief in the heart that the Lord Jesus gave Himself for us on Calvary’s cross.
“GREATER LOVE HATH NO MAN THAN THIS: THAT A MAN LAY DOWN HIS LIFE FOR HIS FRIENDS.” John 15:1313Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. (John 15:13).
But the Love of the Lord is greater than the love in our text, for He gave His life for us when we were not friends, but enemies. What love was His, who can measure it! And what response must He expect from us?
But it may be that one who is reading these lines has not taken the Lord Jesus as his Saviour, so is still a rejecter of the very One who loves him. If so, dear reader, do not spurn that love longer, but bow now and accept from His hand, full and free salvation which has cost Him so much.
“He was wounded for our transgressions; He was bruised for our iniquities; the chastisement of our peace was upon Him; and with His stripes we are healed.” Isa. 53:55But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. (Isaiah 53:5).
