But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law. —Galatians 5:22-23 (ESV)

LOVE: It’s no coincidence that love is the first fruit listed in Galatians chapter 5. Jesus said the greatest commandment is to love God and love one another (Mark 12:30-31). When we love God with all our heart, soul, mind and strength, and love our neighbors as ourselves, we show the world we belong to Jesus.

Until you know God loves you, it will be difficult to love God and love others. Whether you’ve never heard that God loves you or you just need a reminder, watch this short, powerful video about God’s amazing love for you.

Our culture uses the word “love” so casually (“I love your dress!” “I love ice cream!”), it can be hard to identify the kind of love Jesus spoke about in the Bible. What does it look like to love God with all we have? Like any relationship, love means setting aside time. Take time to talk with God and get to know Him through the Bible each day.

Only after we experience the love of God, can we love others. But love isn’t just something to talk about; Jesus taught us to show our love through actions. Find ways to love people through acts of service today. Even a simple phone call can make a difference. Then share God’s love with others.

  • Pray for God to show you someone to show His love with today.

  • Pray for someone to give your invite to Easter services to.

  • Pray that they would accept your invitation and that others who are invited would accept the invitation and would come experience God’s love.
