The most abundant resource in the universe is pure, Divine love. There is no shortage of love in the universe and there never will be a shortage. God is forever and God is forever love. Love does not have to win, it has never lost and never will.
At any moment when we as humans love as God would have us love, we are cooperating with the eternal. No act of love goes unnoticed by God and no act of love is ever forgotten by God. Love is forever.

“And whoever gives one of these little ones only a cup of cold water in the name of a disciple, assuredly, I say to you, he shall by no means lose his reward.” Matthew 10:42
To believe in Jesus is experience firsthand our eternal, personal connection to God’s forever love. To be loved by Jesus more and more deeply is to be drawn deeper and deeper into eternal life and love.
Anyone who is deeply loved by Jesus will also begin to love others more deeply. Being continuously loved by Jesus draws us little by little into the conviction that love that originates in God through Christ is the source of eternal life and this love must be shared with others. Disciples know that they exist to love.
The perfecting of our love in Christ becomes the goal of all true discipleship because discipleship is not just preparation for today, Discipleship is preparation to love forever.
