I wanted to share this picture I found that was taken maybe four months ago. I was babysitting like I normally am and I brought my camera. Ky, a five year old, took this picture and it just brought a smile to my heart which I really needed this morning.
As I looked at this photo I remembered all the fun we had that day, all the laughs and all the smiles. I started to remember all the other times too. The times where one of the boys was upset and they still found a way to smile when something happened. Even if it was something really small, they just let it brighten up their day.
The word love keeps popping up in my life this week, and one scripture keeps coming to mind. One that I have remembered and I didn't even realize I knew it. This picture may mean nothing to you but to me, it means so much. The people that have shown me the way when I was lost, the people who told me something I really needed to hear, and the people who have been there to make a smile appear on my face have all shown love. But the greatest love ever shown was when God sent his only son. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16
That scripture I was speaking of earlier, when I hear the word love come up, well here it is. I'm more than sure you have probably heard it at least once, I think its one of my favorite verses right now in my life. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 1 Corinthians 13: 4-7
What scripture comes to mind when you hear the word love?
What does the word love mean to you?
How is one way you could show your love for someone this week?
(Yes I threw that last one in there like I would have if I were teaching Sunday school. But shouldn't all have a weekly goal that we try to be successful at, and then try to put in our everyday lives after we succeed?)
Just some thing to think about.
Blessings,
