Love is not self-centred

Now you can have real love for everyone because your souls have been cleansed from selfishness and hatred when you trusted Christ to save you: so see to it that you really do love each other warmly, with all your hearts. 1 Peter 1:22

Sincere love involves selfless giving: a self-centred person can't truly love. God's love and forgiveness frees us to take our eyes off of ourselves and helps us to meet the needs of others. By His sacrifice on the cross Jesus showed that He truly loves us. Now that we are in recovery from selfishness we need to follow his example and give ourselves sacrificially to His purpose.
