Extending God's Love to Others

Jul 17, 2025

Reading: 1 John 4:7-12


Love is not just something you do—it's something you ARE! Because God's love has taken root in your heart, you have become a conduit of His infinite love to a world desperately thirsty for authentic connection. Every person you encounter today is an opportunity to demonstrate the width, length, height, and depth of God's love.


When you love others, you're not drawing from your limited human capacity; you're channeling the unlimited love of God Himself. This means you can love the unlovable, forgive the unforgivable, and show grace to the ungracious—because His love flowing through you makes the impossible possible.


Reflection Question: Who in your life seems difficult to love, and how might seeing them through God's eyes of love transform your relationship with them?


Action Step: Choose someone who challenges you to love well. Perform one specific act of kindness for them this week, praying for God's love to flow through you.
