Ladies and Gentlemen, we know for certain that His LOVE abides in us!

No one has seen God at any time. If we love one another, God abides in us, and His love has been perfected in us. By this we know that we abide in Him, and He in us, because He has given us of His Spirit.

Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. And we have known and believed the LOVE that God has for us. God is LOVE, and he who abides in LOVE abides in God, and God in him or her.

There is no fear in LOVE; but perfect Love casts out fear, because fear involves torment. But he who fears has not been made perfect in love.

1John 4:12-18

Dear ones, there are many levels or degrees of this emotion we call Love. The ultimate expression of true Love is Almighty God’s unconditional LOVE for us – all humans on this planet called earth. We didn’t earn His Love.  We don’t deserve His Love. Yet, Jesus Christ willingly laid down and sacrificed His own Life and took my place on the cross.  He bore all my sins, all of transgressions, all of my hatred, all of my lies, all of evil thoughts and deeds and Redeemed them with His Precious Blood.

Holy Spirit of the Living LORD, we are overwhelmed by Your Love for us!  There is no fear in love; but perfect love casts out fear, because fear involves torment.

LORD, we do not want to live our lives in torment any more. We lay our burdens down at the foot of Your Cross and PRAY that You would wash away all of my doubts fears and frustrations and cleans all my self-inflicted wounds.

Amen and Amen!
