God is the ultimate example of love. Without God, we do not have a true concept of what it really means to love. When my heart does not feel like loving others he is the constant reminder to me that everyone on this earth is just as worthy of his love as I am. No one is higher or lower on the playing field. We are all even. Ultimately, we are all unworthy of the love he chooses to give.
As I travel through this specific season in my life I realize that I am in need of his love for my sake. If I were not filled with God's unfailing love I could never making it through the struggles this life throws my way. Because of the love he is showing me, the selfishness that preceded it begins to wash away. Instead it is filled with the desire to give away his love to others by sharing in their joy and pain.
