"Love Is Suppose To Be More Than Just Words"

15 When they had finished eating, Jesus said to Simon Peter, “Simon son of John, do you love me more than these?” “Yes, Lord,” he said, “you know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Feed my lambs.”

16 Again Jesus said, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” He answered, “Yes, Lord, you know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Take care of my sheep.”

17 The third time he said to him, “Simon son of John, do you love me?” Peter was hurt because Jesus asked him the third time, “Do you love me?” He said, “Lord, you know all things; you know that I love you.” Jesus said, “Feed my sheep.
John 21:15-17 NIV

If you're reading this, l need you to understand
something...Love is suppose to be more than just words. Peter could have told Jesus he loved him all day, until he turned blue in the face....But if, in all that time, there were no actions involved, just talk....
The sincerity of his words would still have been in question.

Instead, Every time Peter said, Yes, Lord..I LOVE YOU, Or You know, I LOVE YOU...Jesus required him to do something: 1). Feed my lambs 2). Take care of my sheep 3). Feed my sheep.

In other words...Put some actions behind your words. Show your love for me by what you do for them.

This was how Jesus reinstated Peter back into his life...After Peter had denied knowing him, he required Peter's words be followed up with actions from then on.

🔥HEAR ME: Ya'll better stop reinstating people back into your life who have denied you, lied to you, and let you down based solely on the words of their mouth. Love is suppose to be more than just words, more than just talk.

You know that old saying, "Talk Is Cheap"...Beloved, It really is.

Learn from how Jesus handled his situation with Peter.. Stop believing their words. Like Jesus did...Demand that some type of action follow their words, make action a requirement, if they want to get back in proper alignment with you.
I'm just saying.
