Key Scripture:
“Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.” – 1 John 3:18 (NIV)
Reflection:
Love in Scripture is more than warm feelings or kind words. God demonstrated His love by sending His Son; love acts, gives, and sacrifices. As His child, you are called not just to talk about love but to express it in simple, tangible ways.
You may feel that what you have to offer is small or unimpressive. But love rarely looks dramatic; it often looks like listening well, encouraging someone, helping in practical ways, or choosing to forgive. These everyday acts, when done unto the Lord, carry eternal significance.
People may forget your words, but they rarely forget the way you made them feel seen and valued. As you allow the Holy Spirit to guide you in loving others, you reflect the heart of Christ to a watching world. Your life becomes a living message: “Jesus has loved me, so I love you.”
Prayer:
Lord, fill my heart with Your love. Show me people around me who need encouragement, kindness, or help. Let my love be sincere and practical, not just words. Amen.
Today’s Action Step:
Ask God to highlight one person today. Intentionally show love through a message, call, act of service, or small gift.
