The Lord appeared to us in the past, saying “I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with unfailing kindness. Jer. 31:3 (NIV) Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Eph. 4:2 (NIV) When we fully embrace Agape-the Love of God, we become vessels for Him to love others through us. God is the most authentic example of true love. His love is faithful, unfailing, and unwavering. It encompasses and sustains us. As we meditate on the verses of the week, let us remember to love others as God loves us. Be humble in our approach with others, not arrogant. Don’t look down on others, but rather reach out to lend a helping hand. Practice kindness and avoid being harsh with our words or actions. Show compassion and understanding daily. Be willing to work through differences and difficult times with others. Implement forgiveness in your life and in your heart. Truly let go of offenses and pursue peace. We should forgive as God has forgiven us. Marinate in God’s unconditional love. Bask in His love and be empowered to be a living, moving embodiment of His love. It was His love that wooed us into a relationship with Him, now let His love flow through us to draw others unto Him. Let’s go and grow together. ADaubon
