Verse of the Day

A verse from an earlier day, with its reflection and prayer.

We love because He first loved

“We love him, because he first loved us.”

Read in context Explain

Today's insight

Your love for God is not something you have to manufacture on your own strength. Scripture reminds you that "We love him, because he first loved us." His love came first, reaching out to you before you ever sought Him, and your devotion is simply the joyful response to that original gift.

Reflect

Where in your life today do you need to stop striving to earn God's affection and simply rest in the truth that He loved you first?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank You for reaching out to me before I ever turned toward You. Teach my heart to rest securely in Your love today, so that my care for You and others overflows naturally from what You have already given me. Amen.
