A Prayerful Thought for Today
Jun 21st, 2008 by Charles
I Keep My Love Circulating and Creating Blessings for Others and for Me
\”This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you”. – John 15:12
How will you serve God today? Will you serve God with good works, gifts to the poor, eloquent words or profound teachings? If what you do is not done in love, you will have accomplished nothing. God is Love, therefore let us serve God today as though we were serving a nourishing meal to a hungry person. Woven into the fabric of our being is the need to love and to be loved. Freely give your love as thoughts of well being, words of encouragement, comfort and peace. Keep your love circulating through acts of kindness, healing and uplifting prayers. Be patient, understanding and helpful to those who come into your thoughts and your presence today. Love and bless everyone of whom you are conscious, even your enemies or those with whom you are at odds. Restore love to your relationships through forgiveness. Today let our first intention be to keep our love circulating by loving each other, even as Jesus loves us.
Let Us Pray:
Dear God, You are Love Itself, allow me to experience a new profound relationship with You today by showing me how to love my neighbor as I love myself and show me how to love myself as You love me, with pure, unconditional Love. My intention for the rest of this day Lord is to love with all of my heart, all of my mind and all of my soul. Give me the courage, the wisdom and the opportunity to love and to be loved today, Father. I am happiest when I am conscious of Love. Therefore I choose love at every decision point I encounter today. Thank You for creating me in Your image as a loving being, capable of giving and receiving love.
Thank You God!
Amen!
Selah!
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God, and knows God. – 1 John 4:7
