This ...I adore every one of these posts, Elizabeth. This one, though, moved me so much I had to comment. I really want to bask in the depth of this, not just glaze over it since we hear "God is Love" all the time. I want to consider your question, "How will I prove love today." There is a tug at us all the time - warring within - to seek our own gain or to lose ourselves on behalf of love. Jesus definitely models and calls us to the latter, but He does it from the same place He loves - from fullness. From His fullness, He poured out. He calls us to abide in love so we can exude love. Love costs. It can't be given without us giving. Yet, love returns something greater to us as we give - when we give without wanting to get what we'll receive. That is God's marvelous economy. Thank you again and again for these posts.Patty Scotthttps://pattyhscott.comnoreply@blogger.com
