God chose you and me to bear His image, to share His love to honor His name, He put you and me here now for others to see the light of His love.
God chose the color of our eyes, our hair, our skin, He did not choose the color of our hearts. Our hearts are colored with love or hate. Hate is the absence of love, it is a choice we make when we reject God, for God is love. God’s love is the truth, His love bears the burden of our sin, mine and yours. This life is short, don't let anger, hate or un-forgiveness rule our hearts, or be our masters, surrender to God all that is His, which is all that we are and let His love shine in your life and in the life of others. God put us where we are to shine His love into the darkness. God’s word says this! “The one who does not love does not know God, because God is love. God’s love was revealed among us in this way: God sent his one and only Son into the world so that we might live through him. Love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the atoning sacrifice for our sins. Dear friends, if God loved us in this way, we also must love one another. And we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and the one who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him. In this, love is made complete with us so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment, because as he is, so also are we in this world. There is no fear in love; instead, perfect love drives out fear, because fear involves punishment. So the one who fears is not complete in love. We love because he first loved us. If anyone says, “I love God,” and yet hates his brother or sister, he is a liar. For the person who does not love his brother or sister whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen. And we have this command from him: The one who loves God must also love his brother and sister.” 1 John 4:8-11, 16-21 CSB
