November 2, 2011 ~ A Picture of God

TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:

"No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us"
1 John 4:12


TODAY'S WORD:

If you're like most, you have photos in your home, in your wallet and or on your phone or PC with moments captured of the people who mean the most to you. You may enjoy showing these photos to others and reliving the special moments captured. This day and time we can instantly upload to Facebook and 500 to 1000 of your closest friends can enjoy them is well…that cool. But have you ever thought about having a picture of God in your house, your wallet or on your iPod, iPhone, iPad, Blackberry, Blueberry or whatever other wonderful gadget you can't live without?

Now It may not be in a frame on the shelf, but today's scripture tells us that when we love others, we are creating a picture of God. We are showing others what He looks like because God is love.

Understand today that God wants us to know Him, and He wants to reveal Himself to the world through us. He wants us to display His love and share it with others. First Corinthians 13 tells us what love looks like. Take a few minutes each day and let that scripture sink down into your heart.

Selah people' and friends remember, you are never more like God than when you are loving others. Love is the greatest thing. Everything else will fade away, but His love is a picture that will last forever!

OUR PRAYER FOR TODAY:

"Father in heaven, today I invite You to show me Your everlasting love. Reveal Yourself in and through me. Help me to love others the way You do so that my life can be a perfect reflection of You, in Jesus' name! Amen."


Your brother in Christ,

Patrick
