Fear Not for God is with you! Count Down Day 10
Don’t be afraid to give love this Christmas.
Okay and before you think I am talking all romantic let me
remind you that God is love!
Speak up about Jesus to someone each day, if you are brave
or each week if you are shy. Even if it is just to say “Jesus Loves you!” or “God bless you”, share His love with
others this week. Sometimes this can be daunting because we kind of keep Christ
to ourselves for most of the year, but at Christmas we can open up and really
point to Jesus! Even if its “Baby Jesus”
we can plan seeds of hope and
love through speaking about Him.
God is love, and all who live in love live in God, and God
lives in them. And as we live in God,
our love grows more perfect. So we will not be afraid on the day of judgment,
but we can face him with confidence because we live like Jesus here in this
world. Such love has no fear, because perfect love expels all fear. If we are
afraid, it is for fear of punishment, and this shows that we have not fully
experienced his perfect love. We love
each other because he loved us first.1 John 4:16-19
Maybe we can start with a little bit of “God loves you and
so do I!” when we leave the stores instead of Happy Holidays or even Merry Christmas
we could say God bless you!
I tried this out today, and I got a return blessing! How
exciting it was to find someone who repeated God bless you to me back! Now you
try it, its your turn!
This is a short blog today because it will give you a chance
to try it out! Go out to the store to get milk or grab a coffee at your local café,
and “God Bless You” someone today!
In His love,
