                                            Loved Perfection


Having loved His own who were in the world, He loved them to the end.
                                                                                          ~ John 13:1


  "Having loved..." That He should ever have loved men at all is the marvel. What was there in His poor disciples that He should love them? What is there in me?
  It is His nature to love. Love made the saints "His own"! He purchased them with blood and they became His treasure. Being His own, He will not lose them. Being His beloved, He will net cease to love them. He will not cease to love you!
  "To the end," even till His death the ruling passion of love to His own reigned in His sacred bosom. It means also to the uttermost. He could not love them more: He gave Himself for them. Some read it, "to perfection." Truly He lavished upon them a perfect love, which had no flaw nor failure, no unwisdom, no unfaithfulness, and no reserve. 
  Such is the love of Jesus to each one of His people." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
