Bible Verse of The Day – 11-16-18

Ephesians 5:1-2  (NKJV) 1 Therefore be imitators of God as dear children. 2 And walk in love, as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet-smelling aroma.

Walking in love is an important part of our life as a child of God. What does it mean to walk in love?

Sometimes it means that we give up our wants for someone else’s needs.

We may find ourselves putting our self aside just to reach out and help someone else.

If you have never experienced this, it is the most wonderful feeling you can have. This feeling does not come with material possessions. It only comes through sincere love and sacrifice.

Pray that the Father will use us today in some way to love on someone. He will guide us.

Be ready to give. Sometimes it is of our time or our labor. Sometimes it is of our finances. Sometimes it may be a hug or a smile. Sometimes it is a heart to heart talk, a cooked meal or a bouquet of flowers.

Maybe it is as simple as a card, text message or phone call.

Sometimes walking in love might mean Him telling us to hold our tongue. This may be the hardest thing He asks us to do, especially if we feel what we have to say is right.

Whatever He lays on our hearts, just step out in love and give it our all. Be aware of His promptings and just follow along as He leads.

A lot of times it is not planned. It is spontaneous. It just happens, and we will find ourselves saying, “Wow, that was worth it all”, after it is all said and done.

God is a God of loving on people and He will use us if we are willing to get the job done.
