I John 4:7 (NIV) Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
God’s number one priority is reconciliation. He sent Jesus into this world at an awful cost in order to establish a pathway of reconciliation to God. Of equal importance is our relationships with one another. The world will know we are disciples of Jesus by the love we have for one another. There is a depth of love to be found in Christ (and that can be expressed through our lives to others) that is transformative. Seek to know that level of love! Let us join the Apostle Paul in his prayer: And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God (Ephesians 3:17). Amen.
