Loving Others in Need.

1 John 4:7
7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.


Where do you think love comes from? My best bet, make that I know that it comes directly from God. Not only does love come from God, but when you're in a relationship with him, love comes in that package deal. God also sets the boundaries and defines love. Do you ever feeling you want to be more loving?

I have one solution for you if that's case...turn to God. He can help you love others. He can help you come to inner peace within yourself so that you have great reason and intensity to love others. And the easiest way to do that...is to turn to Jesus. God showed us love toward Jesus. Jesus showed us his love for us by dying for our sins.

Most of all, love others so that you can create some of the only peace they may have in their lives. You never know, someone may be experiencing great turmoil. God, let us share your love with the Haitians, especially those who don't know you, in this difficult time.

Let the following song, "Follow You" remind you of those in deep affliction in Haiti along with the rest of the world who live in a violent political situation such as the Khmer Rouge in Cambodia.



P.S. If you have trouble with the video stopping and starting, keep the video paused, and let it "buffer" (load) as it's called for a while. You will see the red bar along the bottom advance (speed depends on your Internet connection). Wait until that bar gets pretty far along (I'd say more than halfway) before you play the video and it shouldn't pause.
