I LOVE GOD – Rooted

“If someone says, “I love God,” but hates a fellow believer, that person is a liar; for if we don’t love people we can see, how can we love God, whom we cannot see? And he has given us this command: Those who love God must also love their fellow believers.”

1 John 4:20-21

These verses in the Bible have come alive for me over the last year of my life. I know within the secular work world we may run into non-believers who don’t know God’s love or don’t love God at all…but, I thought within churches people who say “I love God” would also love each other.

If you are suffering due to a fellow believer showing hate towards you, always know and remember to turn to God – He loves you!! We can’t see Him, but we have His Word, we believe in His Son, and we must get in prayer.

It seems easier to turn your back on God and run away from Him, but DO NOT do this! It is not God’s fault that people hate – remember LOVE is a choice.

I beg you from someone who has experienced this hurt – please go talk with Him in prayer, trust Him, and then love like crazy. Ask Him to help you forgive this person and flow love yourself. Bitterness and resentment can eat you alive, we must forgive and let go. He has you and He will place you gently where you need to be and will heal any hurt. #TrustGod #love #forgive

So…for all of us believers who get ready to go to church this Sunday, remember the command Jesus gave us…

“Those who love God must love their fellow believers.” #itiswritten
