1 John 4:11
Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
Since God has loved us so deeply, we ought to love one another in response.
God's love is not meant to terminate with us—it is meant to flow through us. Having received such incredible love, we are now obligated and empowered to love others. This is not burdensome duty but joyful response to grace received.
Apply This Today
Let the love you have received from God flow freely through you to others today—you are loved so that you can love.
Prayer
Dear God, You have loved me so greatly. Help me share that love with others, not out of obligation but as a grateful response. Amen.
