Challenge: Week 1

In a effort to walk worthier of the calling--- to be more like my Saviour, the challenge I have put myself on for this week is this. Christ has sacrificed Himself for us in an act of selfless, radical love that singles us out, as His followers. We should be giving of ourselves in ways that prove our devotion to our God. In acts of mercy and compassion.

“If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them. And if you do good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners do that. And if you lend to those from whom you expect repayment, what credit is that to you? Even sinners lend to sinners, expecting to be repaid in full. But love your enemies, do good to them, and lend to them without expecting to get anything back. Then your reward will be great, and you will be children of the Most High, because he is kind to the ungrateful and wicked. Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful.

Luke 6:32-36

This is my challenge for this week. This is my goal; my way for learning to live daily more like the One who gave me life itself. And I want to invite you too, to follow through with loving others--- especially those who don't seem deserving.

God bless you all, and give you the strength to love.
