Daily Devotion

In Matthew 22, Jesus reminds the religious elite (and all those listening) to make the main thing the main thing. If we’ll focus on loving God and loving our neighbors, it will result in us fulfilling God’s commands.
We don’t have to end world hunger in an afternoon or heal every broken heart in a day. Instead, Jesus says the most important thing we can do is love Him and love others.

The real test of our love for God is how we treat the people in front of us. God is love. When we are living in step with God, love is what comes out of us. When we love one another, the invisible God reveals Himself to others through us, and His love is made complete.

God knows better than anyone that love can be costly. You might get hurt, and people might take advantage of you. But the way to quiet those fears is not by retreating. We get past the fear of putting ourselves out there by remembering God’s love and choosing to treat others the way He treated us.

That’s love ❤️

“Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God. But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.”
‭‭1 John‬ ‭4‬:‭7‬-‭8‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Restoring the Joy!
