...I have really been considering what that means lately, and I can say with all honesty that I have barely even grazed the surface when it comes to applying that one! It is so human to want to hold back in this area, especially when you feel that someone is "undeserving" in some way, and even easier once the light shines on this area in my own heart to want to feel guilty for my shortcomings.
Then, this morning, in two completely different devotions, this same verse came up: God is not unjust; he will not forget your work and the love you have shown him as you have helped his people and continue to help them. —Hebrews 6:10 (He reminds us that everything and anything we have done in faith and love will one day be honored by God - amazing - God remembers the good we forget!)
"Lord, I earnestly desire to love others in the same way that You have consistently loved me. To really LOVE them, and not expect anything in return."
