"Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; everyone that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God. He that loveth not, knoweth not God; for God is love." I John 4:7-8 (KJV)
I was reminded tonight: God is love, and I am God's. God is love, and I have nothing to fear. God is love, and so I should love. Too often I forget how far I have come in my journey of faith, how lost and how hopeless I once felt. At one time I thought the love of God did not extend to people like me. I am reminded today that the love of God knows no bounds, because God is love.
As one who experiences the love of God, I am called to be loving. If I do not love others, I do not know God. If you do not love, you do not know God.
LGBT folks: happy Pride weekend. Stonewall happened 41 years ago. If you haven't heard it recently, hear it now: God's love is unfailing and you, as a child of God, deserve a life of dignity, love, and respect. Love others as God has loved you.
