Just love.
I knew the response as clearly and confidently as if I had heard with words spoken, verbally … but they weren’t.
I have been praying over a specific person and situation for quite awhile now. Each time I bring this one to the creator of all, I ask, what do you want me to do? to say? Each time, I hear, not with my ears, but my heart,
just love
It doesn’t feel like it is enough, most days. It doesn’t even feel like I am doing anything. How can I claim this one, this situation, for God, if my words never speak his name, never direct to him?
Yet …
God is love.
That’s what his word tells us (1 John 4:16). His existence is the definition of love.
That passage doesn’t just stop there.
“God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.”
So, as I abide … as I stick to love, living and dwelling in love, I am dwelling or living with God …
and his love dwells in me …
His message, the Gospel, or Good News message of salvation and redemption … it is told when I love others. In doing so I am sharing his Good News.
just love … there is no more important thing to do.
