Loving beyond ourselves is the only real love. If what we call love doesn’t take us beyond ourselves it probably isn’t really love at all. If we think of love as being wise, cautious, sensible and never taken to extremes we may have missed the meaning of what love really is. I have had the pleasure of watching simple love at work these past few days, people doing things for these children not because they felt it was their duty, not because something was in it for them, but just because they love God. The members of this missions team ,the Care Point cooks, the Cup staff have all shown that we CAN give God something of value. Ordinary, simple human things that are evidence of total surrender to Him.

Matt 26:10

10 But when Jesus was aware of it, He said to them, “Why do you trouble the woman? For she has done a good work for Me.
NKJV

We will never really be of any use to God, but we can surely be of great value to Him once we are totally surrendered to Him. What a great goal to set for each and every day. Once we are surrendered to Him God will work in and through us in so many ways.
