Love/Hate

DAY 9 OF 15

Have you ever found yourself in a situation or circumstance where you felt completely and totally alone? Like you’ve been left in the dark to fend for yourself? If you have, then you know just how much difference even a little light can make in those circumstances. 

Jesus compared Himself to light. And in this letter, one of Jesus’ disciples, John, reminds us that Jesus is light and encourages us to walk closely with Him. Meaning, the more time we spend with Jesus, living as He lived and following what He taught, the more we become like Him and walk in light ourselves. And that means we are never alone, and we have a God who will show us the way and illuminate the darkness around us. Are there places in your life that you feel alone? Spaces where you could use the light of His love? Ask God to bring His light to those places and show you that, with Him, you are not alone.

About this Plan

Love/Hate

We all have a tendency to hate on others. We can be pretty quick to judge. The problem? We were made for a different kind of world—a world designed for love, not hate. In this 15-day devotional, we’ll explore what it looks like to lead with love rather than judgement and make a move toward landing on the right side of the line.
