Scripture — 1 John 4:8 (KJV)
8 He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.
Reflection
This verse reveals a foundational truth about who God is. Love is not merely something God does—it is His very nature.
To truly know God is to be transformed by His love, and that love must be reflected in how we live and how we treat others.
John makes it clear that genuine love is evidence of a real relationship with God. When we walk in bitterness, hatred, or indifference, we contradict the character of the God we claim to know.
But when we love—sacrificially, faithfully, and truthfully—we reflect the heart of God to a watching world. God’s love is not shallow or emotional; it is holy, self-giving, and rooted in truth.
Prayer
Heavenly Father,
Thank You for loving me first and for revealing Your love through Jesus Christ.
Teach me to love as You love—with patience, humility, and truth. Remove anything in my heart that keeps me from loving others rightly. Let my life be a reflection of Your love so that others may see You through me.
In Jesus’ name, Amen.
