To Give Freely

I think we are called to practice a Jesus love, not a human love. A love motivated by faith and community. A love motivated by grace.

"Freely you have received, freely GIVE." - Matthew 10:8

The more we seek Him, the more we know Him, and know characteristics that make Him so wonderful. Promises and truths. One thing I know, He cares. I love discovering this new every day. Sometimes daily reminders are what it takes for me to remember! I love just thinking about HOW much He cares. And I've come to realize in these past few years that I cannot fathom it. That I cannot attempt to put it into words. And when I dwell on it, I can do nothing but smile. What I love the most about Him is that He shows His care through the small, simple things. Things like encouraging notes left by complete strangers. To think that there is a God in heaven who loves you enough to do things like that, even after giving the ultimate sacrifice of His son, is just unimaginable. How wonderful and majestic is the God we serve.
