Prayer/Meditation
As we pray over the above, may our hope arise.
May we act upon the measure of faith that God has given each of us to know that He has called us and He will do in us what He has promised: conform us into the image of His Son Jesus, Who is love.
We become love as Jesus emerges from the inside out.
Our testimony is love, for it is the greatest apologetic.
For they will know we are His by our love.
Pray that we are one, and when we plunge through the enemy's defenses, we will not break ranks, but love will hold us together.
How have you seen your love grow as you have journeyed with Christ?
How have you seen your life and the lives of others changed through loving others as Christ has loved you?
Lord, You are love. Agape. The One Who loves without condition. Encourage us that this is possible only by living Your life through us. Amen
