"I have always loved you, says the Lord." Malachi 1:2 (NLT)

REFLECT

At a recent conference I attended, our speaker began with these words from Malachi, “I have always loved you, says the Lord.” And then he stopped. It got stone quiet in the room. Why? What made these words so powerful at that very moment? Maybe it is that so many of us don’t believe God loves us. Not only does he love us right now, but Malachi tells us he has loved us, ALWAYS!

RESPOND

It is Christmas, and what better time to share the “ALWAYS” love of God with those around us? Let’s each consider one act of kindness that we can do this week and wrap the kindness in the message that God has loved them, always! Ask God who needs to hear these words of truth and then follow through as you bring this kind act and glorious message to them.
