Today God says:
"There is no fear in love".
He promises me:
"There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear: because fear has torment. He that fears is not made perfect in love". (1 John 4:18)
My response to the word:
One of the greatest mistakes I can ever make is to be constantly fearful that I will make a mistake. God's love removes that fear from me. Though I do not know what the future holds, I do know Who holds the future. This knowledge gives me a feeling of hope, security, and confidence, because I know God loves me.
My prayer:
Heavenly Father, you are love. Fill me with your love throughout this day.
Today's scriptures:
"May the Lord Jesus Christ's good will, God's love, and the Holy Spirit's presence be with all of you". (2 Cor. 13:14 GW) "Our Lord is very kind to me. Through His kindness He brought me to faith and gave me the love that Christ Jesus shows people". (1 Tim. 1:14 GW) "This is love; not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the payment for our sins". (1 John 4:10 GW)
Quote for today:
I have decided to stick with love. Hate is too great a burden to bear. (Martin Luther King Jr)
On this day:
"Scriptures are taken from the King James Bible or those marked (GW) are from the God's Word Translation, used with permission".
