Moments for Mums: Make Love Your Legacy – Part 1Pavyzdys

These verses may be familiar from wedding ceremonies. When was the last time you really thought about these words and how they play out in everyday life? This love is not the heady feeling we watch in romances or a superficial connection to get something for ourselves. It is hardcore and gritty. The part that hits me right now is “not self-seeking” and “not easily angered”. I know I am more interested in my own comfort and wants that what my husband may need often. I am irritable and snappy with my daughter when her behaviour is telling me she needs the most love. I am challenged to my core. I know that I cannot manufacture this kind of love on my own. I have tried and failed! This love is an overflow of the love Jesus pours out on me if I am willing to accept it. Question Read those verses with the focus on this as a description for how Jesus loves you. Then choose one aspect to focus on in loving others today. Prayer Jesus, give us a greater sense of your love for us. Help us to pour out that overflow of love to others today. Amen.
