God's love for us is unrelated to any love we ever have experienced before. "Beloved, Be LOVED" explains that love, and then focuses on receiving God's agape love and sharing that same love with others. This was God's plan from the beginning, before creation. Nothing is as life-changing as God's love. Receive it and share it with others!
