1 John 4 : 12-21
KJV


12 No man hath seen God at any time.
If we love one another, God dwelleth in us,
and his love is perfected in us.
13 Hereby know we that we dwell in him,
and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.
14 And we have seen and do testify that
the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.
15 Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the
Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.
16 And we have known and believed the love
that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth
in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.
17 Herein is our love made perfect,
that we may have boldness in the day of judgment:
because as he is, so are we in this world.
18 There is no fear in love;
but perfect love casteth out fear: because fear hath torment.
He that feareth is not made perfect in love.
19 We love him, because he first loved us.
20 If a man say, I love God,
and hateth his brother, he is a liar:
for he that loveth not his brother whom he hath seen,
how can he love God whom he hath not seen?
21 And this commandment have we from him,
That he who loveth God love his brother also.






Today's Prayer...


Lord our God,

We thank You for Your gospel,
the great, good tidings we may carry
in our hearts to give us joy in this present time,
even though on all sides people are in anguish and agony.
We thank You that your gospel fills our hearts with compassion,
enabling us to help carry what many have to suffer.
Show us our need of You so that we can receive Your help.
If we must be the first to suffer all kinds of pain and distress,
may we do so joyfully because we have been
promised blessing in the midst of all the pain.
May we continually honor Your name,
praising You for the good news of Your kingdom,
for the promise that everything must work together
for good through Jesus Christ the Savior."


In the Name of the Most Holy we
pray in Jesus' Name

Amen
