(1 Cor 13:13 NKJV) And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.
How do we show God’s love on this earth? There are so many ways and so many opportunities that it can be very overwhelming at times. But, the most important thing is that we never stop, and that at every opportunity we get, we should love on people.
We have to be careful not to scare some people away, because we have so much excitement in us about Jesus and what He has done for us, we don’t want to become overbearing or overwhelming. Some people aren’t ready for all that love and joy that we have bottled up inside. Some people like it when we go out of our way for them, but others may not understand it and it can freak them out. So, we have to use wisdom on this and stay balanced. Let God lead.
Love is a beautiful thing and very powerful in reaching others for Christ. People love when they have your attention. Simply just giving someone a shoulder to cry on sometimes is such a nice way to show you care about them and love them enough to listen.
Some people may need a helping hand; taking time to help them with their projects is another way of showing them God’s love. Others may need finances, groceries, or help with their kids. Some may need a visit, they may be lonely… just waiting for someone to come visit them.
Ask God to help you today to show His love, to open doors for you to be able to reach out to those you come in contact with, whether in your home, at work, school, playground, or the grocery store etc.
Enjoy sharing God’s love!!
