The Test Of Love (Day 9)

Hey YM! Guess you guys might be feeling a little drained and jaded from school, since today is the first day....But anyway! let's not forget to spend a little time with our Father who is watching us with His loving eyes :)

Today's passage is

Luke 10:27

He answered: "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind'; and, 'Love your neighbour as yourself."

John 14:21

Whoever has my commands and obeys them, he is the one who loves me. He who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I too will love him and show myself to him.

Wow, pretty power-packed verses over there huh, and what immediately struck me after typing out John 14:21 was, hey! We all do love God wholeheartedly and God did reveal Himself to all of us on Sunday morning, 14 june, 2009, 10am :) how awesome!

Anyway, the story of the china farmer guy is cool man, and it really inspired me to be aware of my actions and that if I was a child of God, God would empower me to go the extra mile, you believe? And why hold the lift for one person (aka yourself) when you can let others go out first then you, last. It's little actions like that that shows God in you and i'm sure you've experienced God through Encounter Outside.

Let us always remember that nothing is impossible without God and sometimes we struggle so hard to love the unloved, remember that you aren't alone. Your brothers and sisters-in Christ are in this pilgrim's journey together.

Shalom!
