Good Morning Friends! Thankfully His, Thursday! Well, for the second day in a row I am going to share an email I received from a friend….just too good not to share! “Loving” isn’t always easy is it…..be it our spouse, child, friend, or…..God says love our enemies…..at times we just are not in the mood to be “loving.” However….we do have a very important command from our Best Friend….Jesus said, “My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.” John 15:12. Wow….that definitely puts a different aspect on “I not in the mood today.” What if, our Father wasn’t in the mood to hear our prayers, heal our sicknesses, comfort our sad hearts, heck help us get through Walmart…..What if….OK, scroll back up to the top of the email and read the list again, closely please. Each one has an important message for us….tips to help us “love each other as Jesus loves us.” Each one has an important message for each of us for sure, but maybe one really hit a little closer to home than the others….start with that one….give it to HIM and remember HE forgives without punishing and gave HIS only Son for us…..”You yourselves have been taught by God to love each other.” 1 Thessalonians 4:9. No, it’s not easy to love like our Father loves us, but we can give it our very best with HIM guiding and directing us…..And oh the returns are great….worth the effort. Father fill us with the desire to love others, like You LOVE us, even when we are not in the mood.
Keep on loving each other. Hebrews 13:1How good and pleasant it is when brothers live together I unity! Psalm 133:1. Live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself up for us as a fragrant offering and sacrifice to God. Ephesians 5:2. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one anothr, God lives in us and His love is made complete in us. 1 John 4:12.
Love you all!
