1 John 4:7-11,19-21 Let us use the renewable resource, God’s love!
“Separate the recycling from the trash,” has become a common phrase along with the search for renewable materials and systems. Caring for the resources God has given us rather than wasting them is a way to show God love for all he has given us. The search for renewables will continue, but there is one renewable resource already in our possession, God’s love. God’s love is endless. Unfortunately, we often do not use the endless love of God turning instead to hate for one another. God’s love overcame our hate and many other sins through Jesus’ atoning sacrifice on the cross. Loved and forgiven, let us love one another.
