God is love [December 15, 2020 ]
God is love
Psalm 86:15
But you God are merciful and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness.
From the verse above we can conclude that God’s actions and plans for all His children are motivated by love. In spite of our unfaithfulness and evil deeds, He still extends his grace, mercy, patience, and steadfast love to us. He never gets tired of saving us from the negative effects of our sinful deeds. No matter the number of times we fail in completing our assignments, He always gives us another chance to make things right. Our Lord Jesus Christ His only was sacrificed to save us from sin and reconcile us to God.
1 John 4:16
So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God and God abides in him.
God is love, that is His nature. He is always ready to pick us up when we fall. Do not let the evil one use guilt, unforgiveness, and deception reck your relationship with God.
God be with you.
How can I apply the word to my life?
1. When you fall into sin, no matter how bad your actions may be, turn to God through prayer and ask Him to forgive you and cleanse you from sin.
2. Let us not frustrate the grace and love of God. Though He is willing to forgive, we should not give in to sin intentionally, hoping that we will be forgiven.
Prayer
Loving Father, thank you for your grace, love, and mercy towards us. Help me to love others as you continue to love me. Amen.
