Share the Love

Share the Love
by Heather Collver

How much love do you have? Can we really measure our love? Is there only so much and then we are empty? That may seem the case at times, but God is love and the more of him that you have in your life, the more you will overflow with his love.

I remember when I was pregnant with my second child. I wondered if I could ever love her the same as my first. I was almost worried over the matter. The moment I saw her, I knew there was enough room in my heart for both of them. Isn't it funny how we sometimes fret over things that end up working itself out later on?

Today I am praying that we all find time to extend our heartstrings to those who need it most. Call someone we have put off calling, say something kind to a stranger, smile at someone who needs to feel they are welcome in this world. I don't know what it is you should do today to extend a bit of the love that God desires the world to know. I pray that we will all be a bit more excited today, a little more challenged to give this free gift of love to someone else.

Lord, thank you for being our Father, teach us how to love others and help us to be sensitive to their needs. I pray that we will always be willing to extend your love to others and receive it when it is given. Help us to be the reflection that fits you, that reveals your love and grace. Help us to give hope to the weary.

Please continue to pray for JoAnne A. this week.

Please send in your prayer and praises for this week, I would love to share the praises and pray for your needs.

Psalm 52:8 But I am like an olive tree flourishing in the house of God; I trust in God's unfailing love for ever and ever
