Unconditional love

We readily accept that Gods love towards us is unconditional, but what of our love and faithfulmess towards God? Is it "I will love and trust you as long as everything goes well with me?" Or,"If you answer my prayer requests I will continue to love and believe in you?"
I have to ask myself is my Love towards my creator and saviour and king conditional?. If so, then I have knocked the king of creation off the throne of my heart.
He is the Lord,; He is the one who raises or crushes nations. He is the one who works events out according to his purposes. He is the potter I am the clay. He is the master I am the servant.( Ro9v20/21; Is46v9; Ps119v3: Dan4v35)
Father, because of Jesus forgive my arrogance and by the power of your Holy Spirit enable me to rest and rejoice in your salvation whatever circumstances and trials you allow to come my way. May I stand firm and having done all to stand firm in the assurance of your infinite love, making my requests known to you and seeking to walk in the authority and leading of your spirit but without anxiety or resentful thoughts if my requests seemingly go unanswered. May we trust in the Lord at all times and let His praise continually be in our mouths

  1. Could you please comment on the question: May we know the love of God through loving others? Is it possible to love others unconditionally or this is only possible for GOD!
