Respite For the Weary
Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him, and make Our abode with him."
John 14: 23
Dear Lord and Savior,
I pray my children will understand that genuine LOVE for You requires whole-hearted obedience TO YOU. As they walk in obedience, open their eyes to YOUR LOVE FOR THEM - in Your word and in Your ways. Thank You that You desire to live in their hearts. I pray that You will actively shine through them as they die to self, and live for You.
(Jesus said), "As my Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Abide in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and I abide in his love. These things I have spoken to you that my joy may be in you and your joy may be full." John 15:9-11
Dear Lord,
Abiding is not passive; rather, it's active. May your Spirit that lives in us stir us up so that we will be a vessel of outpouring care and compassion. Help us to keep loving like you so that we can keep living life to the fullest measure. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
