“And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.” 1 John 4:16
All that keeps playing in my mind today are the words, “God is love.” Seriously, I am hearing that played over and over. I must be needing it, because otherwise I would not be hearing it. Thankfully, He knows exactly what you and I are in need of and He feeds it to us. It may not come right when we want it to, but it is always right on time. You see not only is God love, but He is always on time, unlike my mother. I just want to dwell in God’s love today. Won’t you dwell with me?
I guess I have been failing on living in love recently. I have felt like I have been stretched to the point of thinness where I did not have to continue to live in love. My stress and other things were getting in the way me showing my love to others. In turn, no one was able to see God living in me. This breaks my heart to think about, but it’s true. As a Christian, I know I am not perfect and that sometimes God cannot be seen in me, but I want to continue to live in love always.
Could you imagine if God were to have a bad day and take it out on you and me like we tend to do to those that we love and care about? Thankfully, His promise to us is that He will never leave us nor forsake us, and “God is love.”
So if you are ever having a day, week, or month like I have, take some time to just focus on living in love. Living in love means you are living in God, and God in you. Even if it takes legal herbs direct to be the thing that really calms you, do it and focus on God and His never ceasing love.
