📖 Verse of the Day

Reflection:

“Do everything in love." Four words that capture the essence of following Christ—not just in grand gestures of faith, not just when people deserve it, and not even when it feels natural—but everything.

When Paul wrote these words, the Corinthian church was fracturing. People were choosing sides, flaunting their spiritual gifts, and arguing over who was right. They had knowledge, power, impressive abilities—but without love as their foundation, it was all just noise. Paul reminded them, and us, that love gives everything meaning.

This isn't about manufacturing feelings or pretending everything is fine. Love isn't asking you to ignore the challenges; instead, it offers a different way through them. It’s about letting God’s love flow through us when relationships strain our grace, when circumstances test our faith, and when our own hearts feel empty. Because love isn't just something we do—it's who God is and who He created us to be.

Today, in your ordinary moments and challenging conversations, remember: we love not because it’s easy, but because we’ve been loved at our most unlovable. Let that truth guide every word, every action, every response.

Ask Yourself:

• How might today look different if I filtered every decision through the lens of love?

• Where do I find it hardest to choose love, and what might God want to teach me there?

🙏 Prayer of the Day

Dear Heavenly Father,

Thank You for Your unending love that lifts me in my best moments and carries me through my weakest. Teach me to love as You do—not only when it’s easy, but especially in those moments that test my patience and stretch my heart. When others challenge my grace, fill me with Yours.

Let my words, thoughts, and actions flow from Your love, reflecting Your kindness even when my own strength feels small. Help me to see others through Your eyes, to respond with Your compassion, and to love them as You have loved me—faithfully, unconditionally, and endlessly.

In Jesus' name, Amen.
