Bear ye
one another’s burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ.
Galatians 6:2
Genuine love comes from God. We don’t have the ability to show the
level of compassion, love, and mercy of God to the world, unless we
receive it from Him; the kind of love that will reach out to the
lost, feed and clothe the poor, and understand and show compassion,
to those who are hurting physically and emotionally. There are
millions who are lonely and feel ostracized from society, all
because of a lack of love and understanding, and through Christ, we
have the ability to make a difference. We are ambassadors for
Christ, and His hands extended towards the hurting, outcasts, sick,
and oppressed of the world. When we simply talk of love, it is
easily and quickly forgotten. When love is demonstrated, it makes an
everlasting impression.
Prayer
Fill our hearts Lord, with your love and compassion. Help us to do
more than speak of love, but allow Your love to multiply in our
lives and touch others. Forgive us for turning the other way, and
neglecting to share the mercy, and love we have so freely been
given. Make a difference in someone’s life through us today. Amen.
