Rise Up - Not Afraid
The most amazing thing about God’s love is that it’s not just a collection of rules or a list of statements we have to agree with. God’s love is different. It changes things. It’s active. It works. It risks. It invites. It sacrifices. In the face of fear, anger, suffering, hatred and even death, love rises up. Love rises up to make a difference is a world that is often indifferent. Rise up!
