1 John 4:8
8 "Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love".
Let's love one another as God loves us. Let's uplift and encourage one another like God does for us. Let's stop tearing down one another's hopes and dreams with our words. Words can hurt, they can scar, they can damage relationships beyond repair. We need to use wisdom when we speak. We need to have our words powered by the spirit of the Lord, not powered by our own agenda. Let's stop being so selfish with one another and let's be selfless. You may be one of few people that someone comes in contact with therefore they need loving words from God, not discouraging looks and mumbles. I try so hard to be happy and cheery when I go out in public to give glory and honor to God. I try to do something nice when I am out, like allow someone in front of me in line, share a coupon, share a smile....something. It may sound corny, but it actually feeds my spirit and makes me feel good. And I know God is pleased for we are all His children. Let's try to be more like Jesus. Let's be the image He created us to be. And let's glorify God in everything we do and allow out hearts to soften and open so that we can be beacons of light for one another in this cold, dark world... and let's be loving and kind so that they will know when they met us, they met a true believer and child in Christ. Amen?!
