In 1 John 4:19 it says, “we love because he first loved us.” If we are to be the people of God we are meant to be, we must learn to show love. There is no negotiating, no excuses, no skirting the issue, love must be present and demands a response in our lives. If this is true there is a pressing question that must be answered. What does love require of me? This rises to the top and becomes perhaps the most important question we could ever ask. In our families, churches, neighborhoods, friendships, schools, finances, if we get the answer to this one question right, we can be the people God wants us to be.
