Spread Love

"Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another." 1 John 4:11

Each of us has been blessed by God to receive His love. There is no doubt that God loves us. Every day He pours His love on us and gives us strength to make it through everything we face in our lives. He is there for us when no one else is. He opens doors that we do not even deserve to have opened, and He blesses us beyond measure, despite the fact we are not all we should be, there is no doubt that God loves us. The same love that God shows us, is the same love that we should show others. Everyone is not going to do the right thing all the time, but we still must show them love, just as God continues to show us love even when we fall short. The Scripture reminds us that, if God so loved us, we ought to also love one another. I encourage you today to show the love of God. When you show the love of God to others, it helps them to see the God in you. When you set out purposely to love, there will be times when that love is not shown back to you, but remember that it may not always be immediately returned to you by individuals, but daily God shows you love. I am grateful that God loves me when I fall and when I fail, and the same way He loves me is the same way I will show His love to others. Since God loves me, and I will show love to others I have no doubt, “It’s My Year To Get My Thing From My God!”

Prayer:

God thank you for loving me always. There is not a time when you do not love me. Help me to show your love to others. Let your love pour through me today so others will see and glorify you. I love you Lord. In Jesus Name Amen.
