Translators

Translators are used all over the world. They are used to bring two different people groups together via the bridge of language which spans the river of diversity. The world is filled with numerous languages: French, Spanish, Russian, English, Chinese, Japanese, Italian, etc. There is another language spoken and authored by God: Love.

Love is a language no different from any of the numerous ones that I listed and the many that I did not! It is a bridge between the Father and His prodigal sons and daughters. The Father is fluent in the language of love while we are not. "We love him, because he first loved us." 1 John 4:19 We learn of love from reading about the life of Jesus Christ. Jesus is the bridge of love between humanity and God the Father. He(Jesus) showed us how to love one another as the Father loves us. "Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth the Son likewise. For the Father loveth the Son, and showeth him all things that himself doeth..." John 5:19-20A

We take Jesus' love and minister to the world with it. We are God's translators to the world of the lost, and even those claiming to be saved who do not possess the love of God in their life. His love must be ingrained in our heart so that it comes out fluently when we interact with people on a daily basis. We must be multi-lingual when it comes to intereacting with the lost and everyone else. Love must come out as naturally as breathing. The Bible and God are our teachers of E.S.L.(Emmanuel as a Second Language-Matthew 1:23). We must use the love of Jesus and be translators to those who are lacking in the language of love. Love is learned by being on the receiving end of it's glorious nature and witnessing it "spoken" to others. All barriers are crossed by love. The greatness of this language could only com from a PURE and DEVOUT heart. Do your best to master this language and walk through life speaking...NAY...shouting love through all your actions to the glory of God.
