The lesson on March 28, 2010 was the eighth lesson in the series "God Has Not Given Us the Spirit of Fear". The scripture reading was in John 15:9-14 KJV "9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you." What great love God has for us. As the song "Looking for Love (in all the wrong places)" demonstrates from the movie "Urban Cowboy", the world looks for love but it has confused love with lust. This lesson looks at the love that God has for us. The word of God is the power of God as we learned in Psalms 19:7-10 KJV. Examples were given from scripture wanting the power of God but they did not get it. On the cover of the March 8th edition of People Magazine, Carrie Underwood was quoted as saying "He Makes Me Feel So Special" speaking of her fiance Mike Fisher. Back in 2006, perhaps Sandra Bullock felt the same way about her new husband Jesse James. In 2010 it feel apart due to infidelity. Dare we mention Tiger Woods... Why doesn't the worlds recipie for love doesn't work? It's not God's definition of love.
