Love this. Love the concept. Love is in the small things. Love is in the things that can not be taken away. Love is Jesus and His sacrifice. Love is hating the sin not the sinner. Love is putting yourself on the back burner while you allow others to go ahead of you.
Love is the greatest gift of all.
God Bless.
Sometimes Love Is Just Being Friendly
by Joyce Meyer
This is My commandment: that you love one another [just] as I have loved you.
- John 15:12
God has blessed us with many things, and when our heart is right, we are thankful for each blessing. But we can do more than just be thankful. We can demonstrate that gratitude by deciding to use the blessings in our lives to be a blessing to others everywhere we go.
You can do this in big ways or in small ways, but doing it always blesses someone else. You’ll be amazed at the results. One way you can be a blessing is just by being friendly. Make a real effort to be friendly with people everywhere you go and show a genuine interest in them. Try to make shy people feel comfortable and confident. Try giving a kind word to encourage someone who seems to be down. There are countless ways we can be a blessing if we think about it creatively. Don’t let the sun set on any day without reaching out in some way to someone else.
Prayer of Thanks: Father, I am so thankful, not just for the countless blessings You have given me, but for the chance to share those blessings with others. I pray that You will show me new and creative ways to be friendly and encouraging to someone today.
