“And so we know and rely on the love God has for us.
“God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in him. In this way, love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment, because in this world we are like him. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love.
“We love because he first loved us. If anyone says, “I love God,” yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen. And his has given us this command: Whoever loves God must also love his brother.”
1 John 4:16-21
Love.
I love donuts on a Saturday morning after a long run…or not after a long run. I love donuts.
I generally love running.
I love serving people.
I love God. God loves me.
Hate.
I hate the word hate. But I probably use it too much. Never about people, mostly about the foods I dislike.
When you think about it, we all dislike something, maybe even hate it. But we are called to love.
God loves us no matter what.
I mean I’m in college and love the thought of some guy singing up to my window.
But if you think about it, truly think about. We have the greatest love anyone could ever want. We have unconditional love coming from God, who I would like to add created the earth!
We have the master of the universe loving us. Unconditionally.
I have the greatest love I could have ever imagined.
You do too.
Love,
Katie
