Learning To Love

“Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God.” 1 John 4:7 (NLT)

Love is a skill. If you often struggle to love well, here’s some good news: It can be learned. That means the more you practice, the better you will become at it.

In fact, God wants you to become a master at loving. He wouldn’t tell you to love others if he wasn’t going to help you do just that.

Do you want to be known as a person of extraordinary love? Then rely on God’s Word and the Holy Spirit to teach and enable you to love others.

To become extraordinary at it, you need to practice it over and over again. Loving beyond what seems humanly possible can feel awkward at first, but God’s supernatural love working through you makes the impossible, possible. The more you love like this, the better you will become at loving unconditionally.

The Bible says in 1 John 4:7 that, “love comes from God” (NLT). When you practice and commit to loving others like Jesus loves you, they will take notice and will be drawn to God, too.
