Love

 Believers experience love differently than the world. The world seeks to be satisfied with a love that comes from others, but we are satisfied because of the love that comes from God. 

See how very much our Father loves us, for he calls us his children, and that is what we are! But the people who belong to this world don’t recognise that we are God’s children because they don’t know him.      James 1.2-3

As you enter this fourth week of Advent, may you find love in the promise that is to come. The narrative introduces us to Joseph, the earthly father of Jesus. How great was Joseph’s love for Mary as he walked a hard road of obedience to bring the Saviour into the world. His love displayed allows us to see the love of our Heavenly Father adopting us to become His children and heirs of the kingdom 

Father God, You demonstrate Your love to me on the pages of Scripture. All You offer in the storyline of Jesus reveals this to me. Thank You for loving me and using people just like me to bring Jesus into this world. May my love for You be demonstrated in a life that seeks You alone. In Jesus’ name, Amen
