1 John 4:19 - "We love because He first loved us."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I Love You".
This is by far, the greatest statement we can say to another person. It encompasses everything, for you cannot really love, if you were not loved in the first place. You cannot give love, if you did not experienced it first-hand.
And such should be our continuing relationship with the Lord. A life full of love - both receiving and giving. It would not only make a big difference in your life, but in the life of others as well.
As you leave your house today, do not forget to say "I love you" to your spouse and kids. As you meet people along the way, do not be ashamed to tell them "God bless you" or "God loves you".
And as you kneel and pray today, affirm that same love by saying, "I love you, Lord" for all the love He bestowed in you so you may love others in return.
+ Let us pray: Lord God, I love you. Let me give back to You all the blessings of love You bestowed to us, for You have loved us first. And by giving that same love to others, may they also realize that they are also loved. Amen +
