Take a Moment for a Daily Devotion
God’s love is more than what He does for us—it reflects who He is. As we discover the emotional, relational, and passionate nature of His love, we begin to understand how loving God and others reflects His image in us.
1 Corinthians 13 describes a beautiful kind of love that can feel impossible to live out on our own. The truth is, we were never meant to manufacture God’s love through effort or good works. As we abide in Christ, let go of false beliefs, and grow in our relationship with Him, His love begins to flourish within us and flow naturally to others.
We don’t have to wait until life falls apart to find out whether our walk with God is true or not. The emotional response to what we think and believe is revealing whether we are on the right path.
What if the reason we struggle to love others fully is that our hearts have been divided among too many things? The distractions and idols we cling to can fragment our hearts, leaving us with less to give. But as we release those attachments and walk in God’s truth, He begins to restore our hearts, allowing us to love others more fully and glorify Him with our whole hearts.
When plans are thwarted, the aftermath is anger, anxiety, and depression. But when our goal is love, we have joy instead of depression, peace instead of anxiety, and patience instead of anger.
