God’s love is an undeniable gift. He took me out of dark and dreary places, gifting me with a chance to truly grow in His world; I’m humbled by this mercy.
My way of showing gratitude for all that He has given is through selfless acts towards others—it’s the very least I can do! With faith, determination, and prayerful guidance from above, may my actions reflect the magnitude of His incomparable Love.
Taking time to review the love of God each and every day is a blessing. Stepping back and reflecting on the ways God has expressed love in your life has a power that brings peace, hope and joy. Let us strive to return this love to those around us by serving others with grace and kindness.
We can honor our creator’s example of pure, unconditional love by allowing it to radiate within ourselves and throughout our lives. May we go forth sharing God’s miraculous deeds, returning love unto Him while continuing to glorify His name.
