God is Loving

By: Bishop Arthur F. Mosley

What comes to mind when you think about God?  It is possible for our thoughts to be flooded with many profound things about our Creator.  You may ponder the fact that God is Omnipotent, Omniscient, and Omnipresent.  That is, God is all powerful, all knowing, and present everywhere.  Many of us quickly consider the truth that God is the creator of the universe and the author of life.  Earthquakes, hurricanes, and volcanos all have a record of being mighty.  However, they are weak in comparison to God’s might.  We could go on and on considering God’s splendor and power.   God’s attributes are unending.  Still, one of the most profound characteristics of God is His love.  Yes, God is loving!

The Bible teaches us that God loves.  Perhaps the best-known Scripture concerning God’s love is John 3:16. It reads:

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten
Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish,
but have everlasting life.[1]

I am so glad the Lord Jesus declared this truth.  It is an act of God that the message of His love is preserved for us in Scripture.  This is amazing; the God with absolute power loves us.  The Greek word for love in John 3:16 is agapao.  This term means to have great affection or great care for.  This love comes from one’s personal will.  This means God loves us because He chooses to love us.  He decided to love us.  This is great news!  We do not have to perform at a certain level to be loved by Him.  We do not have to earn His love.  He just loves us! 

As we go forward in the days, weeks, months, and years to come, I want to encourage us to do three things.  One, I want us to think on God’s love.  Allow your mind to consider how much He loves us.  Two, thank God for His love.  Let Him know that you are appreciative for His love.  Three, share His love with others.  Allow God’s love to flow from you to others.  Everyone needs love!  Everyone has God’s love!  God is loving.

Covenant HealthShare, Inc. (“Covenant”) is a non-profit health care sharing ministry (“HCSM”). As a HCSM, Covenant facilitates the sharing of medical expenses amongst its members, but Covenant is not an insurance company, and neither its guidelines nor program of operation is an insurance policy. Covenant members voluntarily share each other’s medical expenses in accordance with membership guidelines administered by Covenant and its affiliates. Sharing is available among members for all qualified medical expenses; however, Covenant does not guarantee or promise that your medical bills will be paid or assigned to other members for payment. Whether any other member chooses to contribute, in whole or in part, to the payment of your medical bills is completely voluntary on the part of that member. As such, membership in Covenant should never be considered as a substitute for an insurance policy. Whether you or your provider(s) receive any payments for medical expenses, and whether or not Covenant continues to operate, you are always liable for any unpaid medical bills. This HCSM is not regulated by state departments of insurance. Select states explicitly exempt HCSMs that, among other requirements, post a state specific notice advising consumers in such state that a HCSM is not an insurance company, does not offer or provide insurance policies, and is not insurance. As a HCSM, Covenant’s operations are exempt from insurance regulations. Although Covenant does not rely on such explicit exemptions under state law in order to operate as a HCSM, Covenant has chosen to publish these state specific notices.
