1 John 4:19-5:4. Luke 4:14-22

‘God is love: whosoever does not love does not love God, for God is love’. (John 4:8). Everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. So is it written and so has the Most High spoken through His Son that all who love may live in Him and have eternal life in time and through eternity.

Pray for faithfulness in love and self-giving. Seek the will and loving purpose of the Most High in your life and living: I speak to one, I speak to everyone. You are a beloved child of your loving heavenly Father, called with your brothers and your sisters near and far to love and serve him and – through Him and through and in His love – to love and serve one another through My indwelling and the light and guiding of Our Holy Spirit.

The Father’s Kingdom of eternal life and light and love is established and continually and constantly growing in His world. All are called to enter and make progress in it in faithfulness and absolute self-giving. ’Today the Scripture is being filled in your ears’.
