πŸ“– Verse of the Day

β€œDear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”

Reflection:

In a world that often equates love with grand gestures and flowery words, 1 John 3:18 reminds us that true love is a verb. It's the kind of love Jesus modeled - a love that serves, sacrifices, and seeks the good of others.

When we love with actions and truth, we become living testimonies of God's grace. Each act of kindness, each choice to put others first, each moment of genuine care - these are the ways we make God's love tangible to those around us.

Loving like this isn't always comfortable. It asks us to step out of our self-centered habits, to give even when it hurts, and to open our hearts to the needs of others. But in these acts of sacrificial love, we find a joy and purpose that words alone could never provide.

Today, let's embrace the challenge to love not just in word, but in deed. Let's ask God for opportunities to be His hands and feet, to bring light into darkness. And let's remember that as we love with actions and truth, we are reflecting the heart of the One who first loved us.

πŸ™ Prayer of the Day

Heavenly Father,

In a world that often confuses words for love, Your Word reminds me that true love is actionβ€”a choice to put others first, as Jesus did. Loving like this pushes me out of my comfort zone, asking me to give when it’s hard and open my heart wider.

Today, I seek Your strength to love in action, be it a kind word, a helping hand, or a moment of patience. Fill me as I pour out, reminding me of the joy found in giving. May my small acts of love echo Your grace and make a real difference.

Thank You for the chance to show Your love to the world.

Amen.
