Love

John 3:16-17

In yesterday’s devotion, we discussed that God disciplines us because he loves us. So much so that he sent His son Jesus to save us. He did not send Him to condemn us, but to save us.  Johns 3:16-17 is probably the most famous verse in the bible and the most misused.  Some groups seem to worry about the condemning people part, and miss out on the saving part. We all have had moments when we were quick to judge and not to act in love.  Acting out of judgment and not love is another way that separates us from the holiness in Christ.

1. When have you been quick to judge and not to love?

2. What actions can you take to help you love others and be slow to judge? 

Challenge: Be intentional in letting your actions show that you have received a new life in Christ.
