Day 14:
In this the love of God was made manifest among us, that God sent his only Son into the world, so that we might live through him. (1 John 4:9)
God’s love for us is the soil in which our love for God grows. So, identifying his grace in all of Scripture is not a simply nice thing to do, nor is it a novel approach to reading the Bible. Regular exposure to grace ignites our love for God, which is the greatest command and our greatest compulsion.
We need to identify the grace of Scripture in order to fan the flames of love for our Savior. Our goal is not merely good interpretation of what Scripture says. We need to develop a profound love for God that bears much fruit.
Honoring the one we love above all is our greatest delight! So, let it be our greatest motivation and the power for a life that glorifies God!
Prayer: Father, as I reflect today on your amazing grace in scripture, please ignite my love for you so that I might glorify you in all that I do!
