In the midst of all of the hustle and bustle, love was on full display. There was love for family, love for friends, love that sacrificed, love that gave above and beyond, love that spoke up, love that was silent... It was an all-out lovefest!
It's easy to show love to family and friends. It's not hard to show kindness to people we like. The true testament of our faith comes when we reach out to strangers. Our love really is shown when we give it away to those that others feel are 'unlovable'.
Jesus told us that the world would know we were His followers because of the love we displayed. He constantly spoke about love and forgiveness. He taught that keeping the peace should be our highest priority. To Him, we couldn't give an offering without making sure that things were made right between people who had offences with us first! (Matthew 5:23, 24)
Are people able to see your Christianity through the love you display? Can they tell you're a follower of Christ from how you treat them? Would someone be able to observe you throughout the day and see the love of Christ shine through?
Make sure your love is on display today!
Verse of the Day: By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another. John 13:35
