DAY 7

This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. - John 15:12.

It always warms my heart when I hear of how love overcomes. The title of a newspaper article I read that tells of that kind of love is “Daughter’s love unites husband, father.” The daughter fell in love and married, Sean, who is a paraplegic because of a motorcycle accident. She says he reminded her of her father who has health problems as a result of a wound received in Vietnam. Chanda’s parents initially resisted the relationship but now there is an increasing bond of love between them. It may have something to with Sean and Chanda’s Dad both being new Christians.

Dwight L. Moody the great evangelist of the latter part of the 19th Century said, “I took up that word Love, and I do not know how many weeks I spent in studying the passages in which it occurs, till at last I could not help loving people. I had been feeding on love so long that I was anxious to do everybody good I came in contact with. I got full of it. It ran out my fingers. You take up the subject of love in the Bible. You will get so full of it that all you have to do is to open your lips, and a flood of the Love of God flows out.”

Have a relationship problem? Try filling up with the Love of God.
