Memorisation Monday

This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins.

1 John 4:10

What is love? Sorry if I’ve just put a song in your head for the rest of the day. But genuinely, what is love? I reckon there’s a bunch of confusion today.

Is love just this feeling you have when you think about, see, touch a certain person? Is love how much you need someone else? Is love a duty or a commitment?

Love is a mixture of a bunch of things. But John points us to a moment that is certainly love.

God sent his Son as sacrifice for people who didn’t love him. Whatever else love is. That’s love.

Tips:

• Say the passage out loud 10 times in a row.
• Say it once before you go to sleep.
• Say it once more when you wake up.

Pray:

• Praise the Father for sending his Son.
• GIve thanks for Jesus who loved us sacrificially.
• Ask God for His Holy Spirit to help you and others love him and love each other sacrificially.
