Ephesians 5:1-2

Any action no matter how well intentioned that is taken without concern for others and without love at its nucleus is simply wasted time.

Believers are to follow the example of God’s actions. He loved us when we were still His enemies. As imitators, believers should demonstrate that type of self-sacrificial love.

Ephesians 5:1-2                                                     

Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. 2 And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.
