Lord give me the courage to recognize my flaws and the wisdom to know that your love for me is not in spite of them but includes them. Give me the heart to understand the shortcomings of others and the ability to love them like you do. Use me to share your love with those I see today and help stand as proof against the evidence that they are unloved.

The way you breakup a logjam is with dynamite. The word dynamite comes from the same word the Bible uses to describe God’s power. The fear of not being loved can only be overcome through intimacy with The One who made us. His power alone breaks through all the perceived proof that we are unloved and frees us.

Scripture says, “By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” It’s our love for each other that speaks loudest to the watching world. Unfortunately, too often it’s our lack of care and our over emphasis on differences that is witnessed. I want to show the world my God by loving well today.

In the times I feel like I’m not getting what I need or what I want, I get perspective back from the cross. I see Jesus there giving His all to me. How can I be truly be thankful for His ultimate sacrifice and ask for just a little more of whatever it is I think I’m lacking?

The amazing life we talked about yesterday is so much better if we share the fantastic news and what it means with others. It is not just for us. We can’t sit in church each week thinking someday we’ll be ready. God’s love and our beautiful eternal life with Him are all this desperate world not only needs but wants.
All you need
