Looking At Life Through The Love Of God
"Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures
all things." I Corinthians 13:7 NASB
Our knowledge of the Love of God dramatically affects how we look at circumstances and what we choose to believe of others. 1 John 4:19 says: "We love because He first loved us!"
The love of God in us enables us to "bear all things"-to choose to cover and protect others from harm. It allows us to take the Kindest and most favourable view of others rather than believe the worst- "believing all things". It gives us hope for good rather than evil, blessing rather than a curse - "hopes all things". And will outlast, out endure any test or trial- " endures all things":
To live in the love of God is to see others as God sees them.
Prayer
Heavenly Father, thank you that I have come to know your love for me. I choose to look at others like you look at me. I refuse to speak evil of them; I choose to believe the best in them and put my faith to work for good in their life, no matter what!
