Bible Reading : 1 John 3:16-18
Sometimes people say," Love is an action." That means real love isn't a feeling. Real love causes people to take action and do things to show that love.This idea agrees with the kind of love the Bible tells us we should have.
Real Love should affect us two ways.First, love should change our attitude. 1 Corinthians, chapter 13, helps us understand that when we have love, we stop feeling selfish, jealous or proud.We start caring for other people, trusting people and having hope. Love causes our attitude to be focused on positive things and not on negative things.
Second, love should cause us to help other people. Our Bible Reading today tells us if we love, we won't worry about keeping good things for ourselves.Instead, we will use these good things to help other people.
These verses show us how we can be like Jesus.He loves us so much that He gave His own life to save us from sin. If we truly love other people, we will want to help them.
" Love patiently accepts all things.Love always trusts, always hopes , and always continues strong." 1 Corinthians 13:7
PRAYER : Dear Lord, thank You for loving me. Help me to show love to people I see today. In Jesus' name.Amen.
