What’s love got to do with it?
Well…quite a lot. Jesus spoke about love often and at one point was quoted as saying, “love your neighbor as yourself”, which was a reference from Leviticus 19:18.
But how do we do that? There are many people who do not love themselves or see the value God has placed in them. How can we properly love others as ourselves when we despise ourselves? In order to love others well we must love who God has made us to be. Then we will have the confidence of the Father’s love and affirmation in our hearts as we love others through Him.
Take some time today to reflect on how great God’s love is toward you and how valuable and special you are to him. Then look for ways to spread that love to your family and others.
