Have you ever struggled with loving someone? Maybe it’s someone you work with or maybe it’s someone you live with. I am pretty sure we can all answer yes to having had this struggle and maybe you’re in the middle of the struggle now. Another thing I’m pretty sure about is…it feels yucky!! Sometimes when we are in the moment of aggravation we feel good thinking about how superior we are and how aggravating their personality or way of doing something is to us. But for most of us …this feeling soon fades to the yucky feeling… The one we feel when we judge someone else Or talk about someone or the bottom line We aren’t being loving. The reason we feel bad is that we ultimately want to be loving kind and generous. I mean our flesh will fight us every day on this but at the end of the day, we want to love and be loved. This week's scripture from the weekly focus is 1 John 4:7,8 says 1st line…Let us continue to love each other since love comes from God If there's a secret for us to be more loving friends here it is… Love comes from God. so if we are struggling with being loving in our lives Then maybe we are struggling in our receiving love from God. When we spend time connecting with God it strengthens our spirits. We experience his never-ending love for us and this patience and goodness towards us even when he has to convict us and course correct in our lives…we feel his love and faithfulness over our lives. Which when we receive this love we love him more and the overflow is that we can’t help but love others more. But when we are running around staying too busy and distracted not taking the time to be still we aren’t feeling peaceful. Our minds are frazzled and our nerves are constantly on edge so it doesn't take much for someone to irritate and be on our last nerve. When you experience love and you feel loved loving others comes a lot easier. It’s easier for us to appreciate differences in each other. And give grace when others aren’t living up to our expectations. So in this season where gift-giving is an expression of love may we recognize that we have been given the greatest gift of Love we could ever ask for. I’ll leave you today with one of the journal prompts from this week's focus I love you and I”m I pray you have a beautiful week friend Autumn Journal - https://amzn.to/3LewEvj Instagram - https://bit.ly/SusanBethInstagram Pinterest - https://bit.ly/SusanBethPinterest The SHE IS Podcast - https://bit.ly/thesheispodcast Intro & Outro Music Credit: Music: https://www.purple-planet.com - License Free Background Music Credit: Alexander Bluhttps://www.facebook.com/AlexanderBluMusic/
