My love for my family..
"Could an observer learn from the quality and degree of love that I show to others...
my wife?
my husband?
my family?
my neighbors?
people at church?
people at work?
... Anything at all about the greatness of God's love to me?"
J.I.Packer
Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 1 John 4:11

As time goes by, I ask myself more frequently if I've loved enough that day. And sometimes I have an inner shout to Jesus...."PLEASE love that person for me 'cuz I CAN'T love him/her right now!!!!" And I'm so thankful that God forgave me looooong ago for all the mean thoughts I've had against those very same people. (That all comes from feeling like I am and have been their victim). Showing the greatness of God's love to them would be WAY easier if I let God do the showing through me!
I really love this post! Makes me think .and it encourages me to be a better person!
@homesteadtessie - It encouraged me, too!
