Devotional Reflection
Where, oh where, is love?" asks an old song. God loves love. God is the source of love. Love is the most important thing about God. Love is from God. Love is of God. Do you want to be more loving? Do you want to find greater intensity in your love? Do you want to know how to love hard-to-love people? Focus on God. But where do we most clearly see God? Jesus! So look at how God has shown His love through Jesus and do the same thing.
Prayer
Holy God, I want to show that You are my Father by loving others better. Please bless me as I try to treat other people with love like Jesus did. In Jesus' precious name, I pray. Amen.
