An important message we need to remember in light of our nation’s plight, is that “love has no color.” This was the title of a song by the Winans in 1987 and still it is an important message that needs to be heard in 2018. The reality that it is still needed is a sad commentary indeed. Yet, the body of Christ should be living this truth out each day.
First John, Chapter 4, verses 7 to 12 states:
7. Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God. 8. But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love. 9. God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. 10. This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins. 11. Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. 12. No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.
Additionally, the lyrics to the song, “Love Has No Color” is inspiring as well. They are as follows:
People listen, there is something that you need to know
Too long we’ve been fighting, racial wars started long ago
Dear Lord for us to grow we must let go of what’s been keeping us apart
Now’s the time to put the past behind gather all mankind, make a brand-new start
Love has no color, you’re my brother
Love shows no evil, to no people
We know there’s a difference in the colors of our skin
Be proud of your heritage
And learn from the lessons they give
Dear Lord for us to grow we must let go of what’s been keeping us apart
Now’s the time to put the past behind gather all mankind, make a brand-new start
Love has no color, you’re my brother
Love shows no evil, to no people
If we could learn to love with our hearts and not with our eyes
Love for all brothers, all kinds and all colors
What a world it would be
Love has no color, you’re my brother
Love shows no evil, to no people
His Holy Spirit makes us kindred
Love has no color, you’re my brother
Love shows no evil, to no people
So let’s talk about love
God, who is love, commanded us to love one another. May we indeed spread His love to all mankind.
