"Though God has never been seen by any man, God himself dwells in us if we love one another; his love is brought to perfection within us." --1 John 4:12
How is God's love brought to perfection in me?
God loved us and showed it in sending Christ, so that through Christ we might be saved in this holy way and be cleansed from the defilement of our sins. This way God can be not only with Christ, but with all who believe in Christ's story, forever.
So Christ is the manifestation--a physical personification--of God's love. And this is why we "invite Christ into our hearts", so that the Christ who is fully God and fully God's love (God is love--1 John 4:9) will literally be within us. Such is the case for all who believe.
And how will Christ be known in the world? If His children love one another. If that love/God within one child of God connects with teh same in another child of God. Psalm 42 says "deep calls to deep". Love calls to love and is made perfect when it connects.
So here is my answer to how God's love is made perfect in me. It's based on the condition that I allow it to commune, that I not take over with selfish ambitions and vain conceits. That in humility I consider others better than myself (Philippians 2:3). That I remember God is dwelling within me and is calling out to himself: to prase, glorify and honor Himself, through that connection of love.
**Above are photos of some moments when love called to love and didn't run away in fear or doubt. When love allowed love to be enough.
Thank you for letting the love/God inside me love you.**
