ABUNDANT LOVE: A Year of Living with Open Hands
Week 4: God is Love.
REFLECTION
God is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in love. God calls us to live in His lavish love and then to share that lavish love with others. This kind of love is lived out with generosity that cannot be overlooked. When we know how much God loved us, we cannot help but love others.
