No Boundaries, Just Love!

"For this is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another." -I John 3:11 (NIV)
The world is full of darkness and tragedy, but it is also full of love and caring.  Reflecting on the past couple of weeks, the news was filled with stories of tragedy of flooding, but in this tragedy we could also witness the love and caring of family, friends, and strangers.  Volunteers pitched in to donate supplies, money, and time.  Crews were organized to help with tasks ranging from laundry to cleaning to demolition and preparing to dry out and rebuild homes and businesses.  The geographic, ideological, racial, and socioeconomic boundaries or differences didn't matter as everyone pulled together to love and assist those affected by the circumstances.

When Jesus spoke of God's love, He spoke of a perfect love.  Jesus demonstrated this love as He loved everyone, even those that disagreed with Him and sought to harm Him.  Jesus didn't die only for those that loved Him, He died for everyone, all those that were and would be sinners.  The message of love given to us by God and demonstrated by Jesus wasn't a directive to love those that are like us, but a directive to love everyone.  We shouldn't wait on a tragedy to pull us together, we should read and follow God's Word to come together and share His love, kindness, and compassion!

Don't let man-made boundaries keep you from sharing God's love!

Prayer:
Dear God-
Thank You for loving me and for showing me Your perfect love.  Help me to share Your love with others all the time.  Through Jesus, Who demonstrated Your perfect love on the cross, I pray, amen.
