1 John 4:11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.

Jesus came, not to destroy the world, but to make us whole by sharing His eternal love directly with us!

This is the love Jesus wants us to share with each other; a love which knows no bounds and is willing to get involved and do anything to please one another.

Jesus laid down His life to show us the extent of His love. He would like us to lay down our earthly ways of living to show our love for Him and each other.

1 John 3:7 Dear children, do not let anyone lead you astray. The one who does what is right is righteous, just as he is righteous.

When we learn about Christ, we begin to learn how we have a choice between turning a new leaf and doing what is righteous, or continuing on with our sinful lives.

Jesus wants us to turn away from our sinful lives so we can be better protected by Him as we walk close to Him.

Learning about Christ give us the opportunity to obey Him and His ways instead of the ways of the world and the ways of the evil one.

John 1:29 The next day John saw Jesus coming towards him and said, ‘Look, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!

Can you imagine the scene – an unkempt man living in the desert near a river where He would tell people they need to repent their sins…

We may think many would object and cause a scene instead of stopping and listening to God’s Word.

This is the power of Christ. He can use any time, any place, any where to reach into people’s hearts with His love.

Share a little of His love where you are!

Ephesians 1:3 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.

Outwardly who do you seek to get all the praise and worship?

Inwardly who do you seek to get all the praise and worship?

I like to do what I can behind the scenes in church and do not take easily to praise. I believe God should get the praise.

I know I am blessed by God through what Christ has done for me, and that is enough for me to know!
