On our last days of the love project, I want to thank you for participating with us. I have loved hearing testimony’s about how God is working in the lives of those who have participated. It has been exciting seeing the Love Project groups get excited about serving our community as a demonstration of what we have been learning. I would love hearing from you, if The Love Project has impacted your life. When we look at the big picture, living life on the earth as a believer isn’t all about our convenience or our comfort. It definitely isn’t all about just looking out for number one. It is all about living for God and letting the love He has placed in our hearts flow through us to others. It is all about loving people enough to serve them, to help them, to bless them, and to encourage them. Making love a way of life isn’t just about acting right, it is about believing right – that we are fully loved by an amazing God – and that when He loved, giving was a natural result. We should do the same. We love, so we give. Do we really want to be like Jesus? Do we want people to see Jesus in us? Do we want the world to know we are Christians? We can say yes to all of those questions if we choose to make love a way of life. When we choose the 7 characterisitics of a loving person, we will be different on the inside and it will change our actions on the outside. In review, these traits are not feelings or just good intentions. They are habits that we can practice when we decide to become authentically loving people. They are doable, and the result is satisfaction in relationships. So as you practice kindness, patience, forgiveness, courtesy, humility, generosity, and honesty, realize that nothing is has more potential for changing the world for good than loving actions that flow through people who value relationship. So thank you for joining our Love Project, and making love a way of life, in your home, in your church, in your workplace, in your community and our world. Do you remember the song…what the world needs now is love sweet love? All the world really needs is God’s love, poured out through his people! I encourage you to let His love flow through you….let’s continue the love project for a lifetime!
