Love is God and God is Love

Through The Love of God His Children Are Revealed

1 John 4:7-8

Dear friends, let us practice loving each other, for love comes from God and those who are loving and kind show that they are the children of God, and that they are getting to know him better. But if a person isn’t loving and kind, it shows that he doesn’t know God—for God is love.

Practicing The Love of God

One thing that we see missing most in today’s society is love. As the Father’s children, we must show His love in everything we do and say. Our love for one another must first be pure. The word tells us that we are to practice loving one another. To practice loving one another means we must be conscience of how we treat one another as believers. As we grow in the faith, God teaches us how to love one another. God is love and there is no better teacher than love himself.

When we don’t show love to one another we are not representing God. When we show ourselves not friendly and unkind to one another, we are not representing God our Father. We cannot have hidden agendas and motives behind our love. The best example of God’s love for us is when He gave His only begotten Son for us. It is through God’s unselfish sacrifice that we have life.

Let us be aware as we go about our day to practice showing brotherly love to one another. In this way we represent our Father in Heaven well and He is pleased with our actions.

Scripture Reference:

1 Thessalonians 4:9
But concerning the pure brotherly love that there should be among God’s people, I don’t need to say very much, I’m sure! For God himself is teaching you to love one another.
