THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:

LOVE IS ABOUT REACHING OUT AND MEETING THE NEEDS OF OTHERS

You are the hands and feet of Jesus in the earth. The Lord wants to BLESS you today so that you can be a blessing to OTHERS. He wants to work THROUGH you to show His LOVE and COMPASSION. Notice this verse tells us that LOVE isn’t just about our words or thoughts, it’s about our ACTIONS. Love is about REACHING OUT and meeting the needs of OTHERS. Sometimes meeting someone’s needs is as simple as a SMILE or sharing a word of ENCOURAGEMENT. There are many ways to show the love of God. Can you pay for someone’s gas or groceries? Do you see a need in someone’s life that YOU can meet? Look for ways to put your love into ACTION. The Bible says that it’s His KINDNESS that leads people to repentance, and the Lord wants to show His KINDNESS in the earth through YOU.

Today’s Scripture:

But if anyone has the world’s goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God’s love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk but in deed and in truth.

1 John 3:17–18, ESV
