Prayer Guide and Devotional
1 John 4:8
The one who does not love does not know God, because God is love.
The greatest thing us humans have going for us is that God is a God of love. When we look at all the ways we can and do offend God (and often multiple times in a single day) we are fortunate our God is truly loving. Since all it takes is one sin, something as simple as a lie, to keep us from going to heaven, God could have easily said “I have had enough of these people!” But, the Lord went the other way. Because of the love that God is, He sent His own Son, Jesus Christ, down to this earth and He died for our sins. Though we are all dirty in God’s eyes, He wants us all in His perfect world, His perfect heaven, to reside and be with Him for eternity. That is Love. That is God. We cannot truly understand love because we have sinful natures. This sin pollutes our hearts and souls and clouds our understanding and feelings of true love. So, to absolutely know God, is to absolutely know Love!!
Lord, Thank You for loving me. Thank You for even noticing who I am. To think You sent Your Son to die for me, to clean me of all offenses to You, I am so blessed. Help the love that You have shown me come through me and be seen by others so that they will reach out to You to know You and Your love as well! Thank You Lord for being Love!! Thank You Lord! In Jesus Name, Amen!!
