1 John 4:13-16
This is how we know that we live in him and he in us: He has given us of his Spirit. And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them.
Experiencing Christian love is experiencing God. The more I am able to love others the more I experience God, and the more I am transformed. This seems simple enough, but does require effort and intention.
Holy one, you have planted some ideas in me, and I am working on them. Help me to find ways to show your love and to live out your plans for me. Amen

1 John 4:13-16
By this we know that we abide in him and he in us, because he has given us of his Spirit. And we have seen and testify that the Father has sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God. So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
No man has ever seen God; how can we be sure of a relationship with a God you can't see. if we love…
