What is the motor that powers a strong life?

When we come to understand the truth of what love really is, and how Jesus loves us despite ourself and our sin, and we love Him for loving us, then everything changes. We don’t love Jesus so He will love us. He already loves us, but our life doesn’t change until we love Him. It’s the insane truth of His love for us that sets us free. When that truth drops from our head to our heart we become grateful. Extremely grateful, and so much so, all we want to do is love Jesus and others like He loves us. If we lack gratefulness we will struggle to live a strong life. John 8:32,”And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” Romans 8:1-3,”Therefore there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus has set you free from the law of sin and of death. For what the Law could not do, weak as it was through the flesh, God did: sending His own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh and as an offering for sin.” Philippians 4:8-9,”Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy—meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do, and the God of peace will be with you.”
