Chase THE Light Day 19...9.19.23

Welcome to Day 19 of Chasing THE Light: I Can Love

Today’s verse comes from 1 John 4:19. “We love because he first loved us.”

I feel like we are flooded with hate in today’s world…we need more love. We need more people imitating Jesus. All of this begins with us.

In our neighborhoods, our communities…right where we are. It begins with us.

What can you do today to love on someone?

Maybe we can bake something for our neighbor. Check in on that neighbor who is sick. Call a friend that you haven’t spoke with in a while. Call your parents if you can. Pay for the person behind you. Help the mom at the grocery store load her groceries. Hold the door for someone. Look someone in the eye and smile. Say hello to a stranger. Ask the cashier how his or her day has been. Place quarters on top of machines. Pray for someone that God has placed on your heart.

There are a number of things we can do today to love on someone. We can love because He first loved us.

What will you do today?

Have a blessed day!

On Sunday of this week, we started a new online Bible study with Proverbs 31!  I am so excited because I love anything Proverbs 31!  Our study this time around is by one of my favorite authors, Lysa TerKeurst….and her book, Made to Crave !  I have read this book already and it is amazing.  If you want to jump in on the study…please do!  Go here to sign up:  http://proverbs31.org/online-bible-studies/ This week for my blog topic I picked “A Raging Battle”   because food is not something I crave more than God…I crave other things.  God has shown me some things that I crave more than Him and it’s not pretty.  “My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the Lord ; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.”  Psalm 84:2 For three years now I have been doing a 365 photo a day blog and last year I started writing every Thursday about my faith and whatever was on my heart.  I felt...
