Now may the God of patience and comfort grant you to be like-minded toward one another, according to Christ Jesus, that you may with one mind and one mouth glorify the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ. Romans 15:5-7
As February finds our hearts ‘feeling’ more loving, may we be reminded that God has called us to not only love one another, but to be like minded in the fact that our words, mind and actions glorify Him together. Sometimes it takes patience to love each other and we may not always agree on everything, but God is glorified in all of our relationships when we put our minds and words in agreement to praise and honor the Lord.
Great reminder! And perfect timing, today is Hubby and I's fourth anniversary :)
ReplyDeleteIt takes love to be able to disagree but still be able to love and retain relationship.
ReplyDeleteIt's so true that loving others is not always easy. The world focuses on a feeling, the pounding heart and butterflies in your stomach, but God's word speaks of committment, of sacrifice, and choosing to love...even when others are unlovable!
ReplyDeleteLoved your thoughts about the scripture. And what a great photo to go with it. It's a great reminder.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day.

I pray that I will always glorify my Lord. Beautiful verse and picture. I like your new blog.
ReplyDeleteThis verse is written across my children's bedroom... I thought it might help sink in if they had to see it everyday :) But... for some reason it is sometimes very hard! Thankfully, we have the greatest example of love in Jesus!
