1 John 4:19 (NIV)
19 We love because he first loved us.
We love others because God has first loved us. Our Heavenly
Father taught us how to love in Jesus. Our Abba Father has given us security
and confidence so we can love more fully. Our Holy and Almighty God loved us
boldly and sacrificially so we could properly understand and define love. We
are not the source of love: God is. We are not the great example of love: God
is. We tend to be careful and share our love with only those with whom we want
to share it: God's love is expansive and open to all. We love because he first
loved us.
Thought for today:
Do I understand and respect what it means to be loved?
