Advent Devotion, December 15, 2014
Reading:  1 John 3: 18-24
Written by:  Diane Bechtold

Love isn’t a “feeling,” love is what we say and do in relationship to another. If we love others then they, and everyone else, will know because we actively demonstrate that love. God frees us from any guilt we have and enables us to act as Jesus did – caring for and serving in ways that meet the needs of those to whom we show our love.

Prayer
Gracious God, help us all to remember that love is not “butterflies in our stomach,” or “fluttering in our heart” but actions that serve to raise up those around us. Help us act in the ways of Christ. Amen
