Love

Something happens to us when we receive love from another . . . something wonderful (or awe-ful, in the true sense of the word).

That may be why God asks us to love the unlovable, to love our enemies, to pray for those who hate us.

God is in the business of transformation, and this comes not only to those we love, but to us as we love others.

Check the scriptures, it’s filled with these crazy statements like heaping coals on the enemy’s head by showing love and kindness, loving one another, being reconciled to another before we reconcile with God . . .

God knows that change must take place, and that change agent is us.

We are the ones who can change this life for the better.

We can be blessers . . . ambassadors of the message of reconciliation, those who represent what God is doing in the human race through His children.

Be reconciled to God and love one another. Act out in love to others, so they can be the recipient's of God's love, and receive the change that only love can make in their own lives.

Personally, I could stand to improve much in this area of my life.
