Scripture: 1st John 4:19
We love because God first loved us.
Thought for the Day: Look at what the minister’s wife bought the minister for Christmas. Now I recognize that some folks might not feel real comfortable with this t-shirt, but I’ve always felt that God had a good sense of humor …even a little playful sarcasm can put a smile on God’s face. Though too often the followers of Jesus have modified this scripture, making it more like: “God loved me first and foremost. Good luck to the rest of you!” But if we truly believe God proactively loved us, with ‘us’ being all of humanity, then we should be those who live as if everyone we meet is a member of the household of God…because they are.
Prayer: Thank you, Lord, for loving me and all the me’s of this world. Amen.
