Put On Love


I once again have the privilege of being a guest writer over at my friend, deni Weber’s web site, Today’s Encouraging Words. 

Put On Love


And over all these virtues put on love, which binds them all together in perfect unity. Let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, since as members of one body you were called to peace. And be thankful”
(Colossians 3:14-15).

When I see these words, put on love, I wonder how do I do that? Is putting on love like putting on a coat? 

Is it like putting on the armor that guards us against the enemy’s assaults? 

To put something on seems so temporary. I want love to be a permanent part of me and of everything I do. 

This Scripture’s exhortation is that over all these virtues, I am to put on love. I back up and find this:To read more, Click Here

  1. Lynn,
    I've been carrying the quote: "I want to dwell within his chronic comfort rather than my chronic pain" on a scrap of paper for ages now, as it seemed so relevant. Now I know where it came from!
    Your words are always a blessing and encouragement. Thanks for sharing.
    Love,
    Fiona

    1. Fiona - this encourages me!

      This writing that I shared with deni is from a devotional some years back and I remember your comments then, too, and how they inspired me.

      Thank you!
