Who do you think first loved you?
Today's Scripture Reading:
"God is love."
— 1 John 4:8 (NIV)
A shirt trivia for today, did you know that in the Bible, the word "love" was written over 500 times? This highlights the significance of love in God's plan for us. In 1 John 4:8, it states that "God is love," underscoring that love is not just an attribute of God but His very essence.
It's a fact and we are expected to always do everything with love. Forgive those who have wronged us. Extend patience when it's needed. Always do everything with love for love. It seems easy to say and we can't help but be lost sometimes. That's why Jesus exemplified perfectly the love that we can emulate. His love is unconditional and everlasting, serving as a model for how we should love one another.
Love is powerful; it heals wounds, builds bridges, and unites hearts. When we love deeply, we reflect God’s nature and fulfill His greatest commandment. Then in the course of life that we get lost, let us remember who first loved us. He will lead us back to His love. Unconditional love. Endless Love.
