PRAYING FOR LOVE
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. - John 3:16
For many Christ-followers, this verse describes how they were drawn to Jesus. The immense love of God enveloped them and caught them up in mercy and grace, rescuing them from their failures and bringing light to the darkness. God loves you so much. God loves every member of your family so much! It is because of the love of God that we are able to express love, even to those who are difficult to like. Every person in your family needs to know they are loved, both by God and by you.
Ask Yourself:
-How would you describe your love for a favorite family member?
-How does that love compare to God’s love for you and for that family member?
-Who in your family needs to know God’s love? Who needs to see or hear your love?
Pause to Pray for your family: Use today’s scriptures to pray for each family member to know the love of God. Also, pray for your family to learn to love one another well. Use this prompt to get started -
Father, your love for us is so great! That you would sacrifice yourself for us is so hard to understand. We don’t deserve it! Yet, you’ve given us this precious gift. When I look at my family, help me to remember how much You love them. When I look at my family, I want to love them. I want to learn to love them well. Lord, I need your Spirit to give me a heart full of love, compassion, and wisdom… Amen.

“Family” might be the people you lived with growing up or the people you’re living with now. You might imagine the family you want to have someday. Perhaps you call people “family” who aren’t related to you. Whoever they are, they are a part of your life, and praying for them will help build a thriving family.
