God is Love

“He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.” - 1 John 4:8

When we’re born, we are first introduced to our mom. Maybe another person who’s your guardian. This makes me think of a first love. The first person you laid your eyes on. Then, that love followed with action.

Words are not just there for us. They are there for us to follow. Applying love shows forth effort. Can you think of anyone that has shown you pure love? If someone were to ask you to define love, what would you say?

I would say Jesus. From the day He came. His saving that He brought to me. Someone that watched me go down a dark path and changed it for my good. The One that truly loves me.

I know how much He cares. His loving- kindness is awesome. I’m forgiven of my sins. His mercies are new each day.

How do you show love? Being there for others brings me joy. Helping in any way that I can. Being gentle and kind. Showing an example of Christ.

When God sent Jesus, He gave us love. Love is the primary foundation. Where do you stand?

Bible verses for you:

“And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity (love), I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity (love), it profiteth me nothing.” - 1 Corinthians 13:2,3

“And now abideth faith, hope, charity (love), these three; but the greatest of these is charity (love).” - 1 Corinthians 13:13

God Bless You!
