Let God's Love Flow


Day 13
Love my people. Speak words of truth and kindness. I am your source, your storehouse of riches. All these things I ask you to do, I will do them. You must exercise your will to remain focused on me, and keep my word in your heart. Let me know what you desire. Be in constant communication with me. I will bring it all to pass. Wait upon me, trust me, and obey me.

We know love by this, that He laid down his life for us; and we ought to lay down our lives for our brothers and sisters. If anyone has material possessions and sees his brother in need, but shows no compassion, how can God's love be in that person? Dear children, let us not love merely with words or tongue, but with actions and in truth [1 John 3:16-18].

We love because He first loved us. If anyone says, "I love God," but hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. And He has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother [1 John 4:19-21].

For God is working in you, giving you the desire and the power to do what pleases Him [Philippians 2:13].
