"And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister." -I John 4:21 (NIV)
We have many responsibilities in our lives. One responsibility revolves around love. We shouldn't let the attitudes or actions of others deter us from this responsibility. As Dave Willis stated, "Don't worry about other people's opinions of you. God never told you to impress people; only to love them."
We are called by God to share His love. We cannot impress God or earn salvation by our actions and we may not impress or live up to the expectations of those around us. However, we that doesn't mean we should give up on trying to live for God. Even though we cannot earn redemption, God has given it to us through His Son. Even though we may not impress those around us, we can still live in ways that show God's love. God shares His love and He expects us to love Him and to love others!
Live in ways that show your love for God and your love for others!
Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for loving me. Help me to always share Your love with others. In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
