A few years back, our church family participated in The Love Project, a church-wide initiative designed to learn together how to show love better to the community around us and to each other. This 10 week study was a key way for us to connect meaningfully with people around us, and make a lifelong impact in our community! Hi, this is Dorette Schaal with an encouraging word for your day. As we rewalk this pathway, we invite you to join us. We are preparing this fall to do the “one another project”, and love is the perfect preparation. Together we can make love a way of life, and positively change our world. Here is your dailyeword.
Today can be the start of something Big! Our world revolves around the people in our life. God wants us to thrive in our relationships and we shouldn’t be surprised that his pattern for our relationships is based upon authentic love being transferred from person to person. Over the course of this Love Project, our desire is that our love walk would increase to the point where every interaction we have with the people in our life would be fueled by the loving characteristics we are developing and our responses would be positive in every situation. That may sound unrealistic, but Jesus did tell us to love Him with all of our heart, soul and with all our might. That is total, complete love. I guess my position on any of God’s commands are if He tells us to do it, we are able with His strength and power to live it out in our lives. We are Studying Love as a Way of Life by Gary Chapman, and within this information, you can find a way to live a satisfied life, by learning how to love others well.
