1 John Devotional
God is Love
1 John 4:16b God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.
Have you ever been let down by someone who said they loved you? I sure have. And, I've let others down that I was supposed to love. That's human nature. We have a love that is broken by our sinful nature.
​
But John shares exciting news with us: God is love! The implications of this are big.
-
God is perfect untouched by sin, so His love is also perfect and never fails!
-
The love that God has is so much greater than what we can even imagine and satisfies our needs. (You can learn more in 1 Corinthians 13.)
-
And finally, this love can live within us so that we can begin to demonstrate this love to those in our lives.
As you think about this today, here are 2 questions to consider:
-
How great has God's love been to me?
-
What can I do to show the love of God to someone that needs it today?
