Love Takes the Initiative


Love consists in this:
it is not we who loved God
but God loved us and sent his Son
to be the sacrifice that takes our sins away....
No one has ever seen God,
but as long as we love each other
God remains in us
and his love comes to its perfection in us.

I spent some time this morning in this chair in the wonderful sunshine reflecting on the First Letter of John, 4:7-12.  God always makes the first move.  When we let Gracious Love warm our hearts, we can be that Love for others.
