AUTHENTIC LOVE!
Joshua 23:11 – Devotional
Joshua 23:11
“Take good heed therefore unto yourselves, that ye love the LORD your God.”
The more we love the Lord the more we are able to love those around us. In like manner, the less we love the Lord, the less we are able to shower those around us with the pure love of Jesus.
The world is full of false love that may best be expressed as erotic love. It actually is not love at all, but rather can better be defined as lust. The difference is that pure, God given love is expressed in being others minded.
Having a pure love for others will find us caring enough for others to pray for them and do things for them that will draw them closer to God. That means we will be aware of their spiritual needs and not only lift them in prayer, but encourage them in thought, word and deed!
We may not be able to preach like Paul, but we can share the love of Jesus with a world around us that is starving for authentic love. Be real! Let the authentic love of Jesus be seen in all that you do!
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
