Last week I wrote about John 15:12 which tells us to love as Jesus loved. 1 John 4:19 tells us more about how we love. We love because God loved us first. There is no way that I can love others in my own ability. I am more likely to put myself first. We need the reminder that God loving us is the only way we can love others.

Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for loving us so we could love others. Please help us to remember that You are the only way we can love.

I pray this in Jesus’ name.

God is so good.
