This morning I woke up and read some comments on a post I made on Facebook about prayer. There was confusion on the points I was making. Then I do my morning reading and this is what I read. I\u2019ll quote it because it\u2019s spot on. \u201cWe often spend hours each day on our computers or cell phones. We encourage each other via WhatsApp, Facebook, and Instagram; send hearts and hugs; etc., but what we may not realize is that this isn’t necessarily the way Jesus has shown His love!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This reminds me of the saying, \u201cActions speak louder than words.\u201c The Bible tells us, to not just love with words or speech. But with actions and with truth. Jesus is the ultimate example of this. Leaving his throne to join us on earth. And then to suffer a tremendously painful death. Teaching us how to love with action. I\u2019m not saying we have to die for others to show love. But we can do different tasks for them that show it. Buying groceries. Mowing the grass. Visiting in hospitals. Especially since our words can be confused. Sometimes people don\u2019t understand exactly what we\u2019re trying to say. Sometimes we\u2019re not being very clear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
So today let\u2019s show our love through deeds. Not just typing. Let\u2019s turn our words in actions. Let\u2019s make sure our actions show true love. Instead of typing a reply, let\u2019s go see the people that we are commenting on their posts. Let\u2019s be the light that others can\u2019t seem to find. Let\u2019s remember that sacrifice made for us some 2000 years ago. Because we already know-Actions speak louder than words.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
