We search for what we do not know, driven by what we cannot recognize. What is life about? There is a way, the lost way, with answers for us all.
Devotional
1 John 4:19 Message Bible
First we were loved, now we love. God loved us first.
There are three responses to the conviction of sin and the invasion of God’s love.
- I will not believe…(that I have sinned and) that God loves ME, no matter what Love He brings, because He has wronged me. I would rather keep my hurt than receive God’s love.
- I will have my way… I will not give up my quest of love for Love. I would rather love my self than love God.
- I want God more than all… I fall on my face and let God love me His own way.
