Create Your Now with Kristianne Wargo 3974 Love On Purpose
Yet as we know, it's easy to judge others based on our own shortcomings. We carry unhealed wounds, past hurts, and false beliefs about how people should be, often measuring love by performance or appearance. But God doesn't work that way.
"For the Lord sees not as man sees: man looks on the outward appearance, but the Lord looks on the heart" (1 Samuel 16:7).

God loves us fully—quirks, warts, mistakes, and all—and asks us to do the same for others.
"Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you" (Ephesians 4:32).
When we love on purpose, we love past the surface and beyond judgment.
Take Off the MaskWhat if, this Valentine's weekend, we stopped putting conditions on who deserves our love? What if we stopped expecting others to look or act a certain way before we show them kindness?
"Judge not, that you be not judged" (Matthew 7:1) challenges us to remove those filters and biases.
So, take off the mask and see people as God sees them: beloved, valuable, broken, and in need of grace.
"Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins" (1 Peter 4:8).
This isn't cheap love; it's a deliberate choice to meet others where they are, not where we think they should be.
How Would Loving Like God Change Us?When we love unconditionally, our hearts shift. We become more patient, more compassionate, and less reactive. We stop guarding against disappointment and start embracing acceptance.
"Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another" (Ephesians 4:31-32).
The K.I.S.S. ~ Love on purpose!This kind of love transforms your daily interactions. Instead of reacting from a place of frustration or fear, you get to respond with generosity and hope—because God's love has already covered you, and me.
Love Elevated: Beyond a HolidayWith it being Valentine's Day weekend, we often focus on romantic love, but God's love reaches far wider and deeper. It invites us to love on purpose—not only those closest to us but also the overlooked, the difficult, and the imperfect.
"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another" (John 13:34).
Loving like God is the highest calling and the truest gift we can give.
Your Next MoveChallenge yourself to love without the conditions you normally set. See beyond the mask. Show up for people not because they meet your standards, but because God's love compels you.
When you love on purpose, you don't just mirror God's heart—you bring His kingdom here on earth, in the way you live and love every single day.
"Be present. Be incredible. Be YOU!!!"
