Pensamento:

Como é que você sabe que Deus está no seu coração? Você sabe quando está fazendo coisas amorosas para abençoar as vidas de outros! Assim como confiamos e contamos com o amor constante de Deus por nós, nossos irmãos e irmãs em Cristo precisam que alguém demonstre amor por eles também!

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

How do you know God is at home in your heart? It's an important question! You know when you are doing loving things to bless the lives of others, and your love reflects the Spirit-formed kind of love Paul defines in 1 Corinthians 13:4-7; God is at home in your heart:


Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.


When we consistently act in unloving ways, we show we really do not know God, no matter how much Bible we think we know!

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love (1 John 4:7-8).


Just as we trust and rely on God's constant love for us, our brothers and sisters in Christ need us to show them our love consistently and steadfastly. Love is not only a sign that we have been born of God, but this kind of Spirit-led love is the glue that holds our fellowship together.

Oração:

Amoroso Deus e Todo-Poderoso Pai, enche me com Seu Espírito para que possa ser mais amoroso com a minha família, meus amigos e aqueles que o Senhor coloca no meu caminho para que aprendam sobre Jesus e Seu amor. Em nome do meu Salvador gracioso eu oro. Amém. || Veja a imagem especial em 1200x800: http://www.iluminalma.com/img/il_1joao4_16.html

My Prayer...

Loving God and Almighty Father, please open my heart to see how Jesus has loved me. Please fill me with your Spirit so I can love my family, my friends, and those you place in my path with that kind of love. Please use my love for Jesus, for them, and for those around me to help them learn about Jesus and his love for them. In the name of my gracious Savior, Jesus, I pray. Amen.
