Good Morning To All,

In 1 John 4:19 it says
We love because He first loved us.

What an amazing verse. In that short little 7 word verse, there is a truth that rings louder than any bell ever could! God loved us and loved us FIRST! Because of His love for us, we are able to love others as He does. If I take it one step further…He loved ME first, me…can you imagine that?!?! Now if that wasn’t insight enough for me today in verses 20-21 it says…

If someone says, "I love God," and hates his brother, he is a liar; for the one who does not love his brother whom he has seen, cannot love God whom he has not seen. And this commandment we have from Him, that the one who loves God should love his brother also.


In my reading I got such a wonderful feeling knowing that He loves me, but then came verses 20-21…the UH-OH moment. Yes, I Love God, but I haven’t always loved everyone else. I read and reread these verses over and over and there is no way around it. God has commanded me to love others as He loves them. I know that it won’t be easy to change my life long pattern of me choosing who to love and who I choose not to love, (like I could ever be better at choosing than God!) but with His help, I know that I can and will be able to love as He loves.

What a blessing reading these verses today. What a life-altering commandment to follow!
Have a Blessed Day~Linda
