SHOW THE LOVE OF JESUS!​​

Romans 12:10 – Devotional

Romans 12:10

“Be kindly affectionate to each other with brotherly love. In honor showing preference to one another.”

As a pastor, I have frequently confronted adults who still carried the trauma of their early years. My precious wife carried some of those scars. She often recalled a boy who treated her very cruelly. Ironically, when I became a pastor in Burns, Oregon, that boy, now a man, was a member of our church.

Joyce had a difficult time overcoming the memories of the things he had said and the way he had mistreated her. One of the things that perplexed her was that he did not recall his harmful actions and acted nonchalant about it.

It is also true that sometimes people do not actually say the hurtful words, but laugh when belittling words are spoken. Their laugh has the effect of bringing that person into the area of guilt. We might say guilt by association.

God calls each of us to show a spirit of blessing and praise. We do that by our actions as well as by our words. Look for God-given opportunities to show forth the love of Jesus to those hurting hearts we encounter.

May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
