This is probably one of the most important questions you could ask.  Why?  What could possibly send someone out to do this?  Love and gratitude can be our only motivations, if we do this for any other reason we should stop now.  What about obedience and duty?   What about performance or ambition?  What about doing it because it just feels good?  The truth is that obedience, duty, performance and ambition, and most of all doing it because you “feel good” are the antithesis of unconditional love.  We love without the hope of reward.  We love without the hope of church growth.  We love without the hope of great feelings.  We love even when we are hated or cursed.  We love because we have been loved, and are being loved, and that love is so great that it overwhelms our lives and flows into the lives around us, lives just like you.  We are grateful that the love which we have experienced came at a great cost, the very life of our Savior Jesus and that He poured out this unconditional love upon us.  We had nothing but dirt and pain to offer Him, but that didn’t matter to Him, He loved anyway.  So, now, we love anyway, His love through us to you.  And then the miracle of life happens and you are healed, cleansed of hurts and rejection, filled with love, and then you too share that same amazing love to others.
