Loving others with the love of Christ

God has given you the wisdom and knowledge to understand His word. He has given you purpose and has placed His deepest love in you to display to others who He really is. Today, think about the last time you really loved yourself, and loved others even if they have hurt you. Allow Christ to shine His love through you completely. His love is patient, His love is kind, His love is true, and sufficent. Who can keep us from the love of Christ? Nobody! You are His instrument of love so that others may see, who are not in Him. You are important to His kingdom and He wraps you in His love daily. Not only has he given you this precious gift, but He has allowed you to share it with others.

1 John 2:5-6,10
But whoever keeps His word, truly the love of God is perfected in him. By this we know that we are in Him. He who says he abides in Him ought himself also walk just as He walked... He who loves his brother abides in the light, and there is no cause for stumbling in him.

The compassion you show to others can change the way they think about life and can even save someone. The love you share with people no matter what the circumstance may be could cause someone to give their life to Christ. Love changes things just as it changed you! Jeremiah 31:3 "Yes I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you." Just has God has drawn you and has loved you with an unfailing love, you are being used to show His love to the people around you. So, Be encouraged to love your neighbor, Be encouraged to utilize God's precious gift that He has given to you. I encourage you this week to love on those who have hurt you, who you may have bickered with or a person you don't even know. Allow your heart to be open to The Lord's unchanging and everlasting love. You are important to Him which is why He uses you to show others who He really is. It's His light that shines in you and overtakes you. Let His joy overtake you this week and His glory be upon you like never before. Allow His love to pierce your heart so deeply, allow the overflow to be so great you'll have no choice, but to pour it onto others. Today, I shower you with the love of Christ. His love is perfect, beautiful, unfailing, unchanging, evertasting... And so are you because He dwells in you.
Show off God and all He is in you!

Prayer:
Lord, show me your marvelous ways and make me to know love in your image. Allow me to be an open vessel that brings souls to Christ. Father I ask that you allow me to feel your love and that it may be pourn onto others. Shine your light so that all of creation may see and be filled with your spirit! Fill them with the fruits of your spirit (Galatians 5:22). Thank you Lord for your love your joy your peace and your presence you are worthy and I honor you! I love you Jesus Amen
