Living in love Aug 3
Scripture
1 John 4:16
God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him?
Isn't it good to know that we are loved by others? We all have a need to be loved. Love is a decision, not a feeling. I am going to choose to love others today because others need to be loved. Our scripture says that we are to live in love. How can you express love to your family, friends and strangers today? How can you express love to God today? Remember the command that God has given, is for us to love others and to love the Lord. Choose to walk in Love today.
