Author Insight

Love reaches out

Yes, genuine love reaches out to those around us and those far away. We can express our love in words, cards, gifts, contributions to those in need. God reached out to us by sending Jesus to show us what God is like. Now it is our turn to be God's hands and feet to bring hope and healing and love to a broken and hurting world.

Book Excerpt

Praying for BIG Things

Love

F ather, we know what real love is because Jesus laid down his life for us. So, we also ought to give up our lives for our brothers and sisters. Remind us that if someone has enough money to live well and sees a brother or sister in need, but shows no compassion—God’s love cannot abide in that person! Help us not merely to say that we love each other; let us show the truth by what we do. Guide our actions to show that we belong to the truth, so we will be confident when we stand before you, O God.

LORD, in your mercy, hear our prayer.

Based on 1 John 3:16-19
