Here’s the passage the Lord that I am meditating on today. It’s actually a hard one when we encounter sugary sweet people that we dislike for a reason we can’t pinpoint.
“Dear friends, let us continue to love one another, for love comes from God. Anyone who loves is a child of God and knows God.
But anyone who does not love does not know God, for God is love.
God showed how much he loved us by sending his one and only Son into the world so that we might have eternal life through him. This is real love—not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as a sacrifice to take away our sins.
Dear friends, since God loved us that much, we surely ought to love each other. No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us, and his love is brought to full expression in us.
And God has given us his Spirit as proof that we live in him and he in us.
Furthermore, we have seen with our own eyes and now testify that the Father sent his Son to be the Savior of the world. All who declare that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God. We know how much God loves us, and we have put our trust in his love.”
1 John 4: 7-16 (NLT).

Sometimes we just need a little reminder.
“Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written:
“For your sake we face death all day long;
we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered.”
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Romans 8: 35-39 (NIV).
Isn’t it wonderful to know that there is a God who loves us and has written our names in His “Book of Life”?

I’m reading and meditating on Jeremiah 12 today. Jeremiah is known as “The Weeping Prophet.” He was tasked with warning people about the coming judgment.
“. . .Why are the wicked so prosperous? Why are evil people so happy?
You have planted them, and they have taken root and prospered.
Your name is on their lips, but you are far from their hearts.
But as for me, Lord, you know my heart. You see me and test my thoughts.
Drag these people away like sheep to be butchered! Set them aside to be slaughtered!. . .
“The Lord’s Reply to Jeremiah
“If racing against mere men makes you tired, how will you race against horses?
If you stumble and fall on open ground, what will you do in the thickets near the Jordan?
Even your brothers, members of your own family, have turned against you.
They plot and raise complaints against you.
Do not trust them, no matter how pleasantly they speak.”
Jeremiah 12: 1-3, 5-6 (NLT).
I ponder the lessons for us today and for nations that ...

Being thankful can be difficult when life gets rough. However, Christ-followers with years of experience will tell you that this simple practice can transform you, your circumstances, or both.
“Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.”
1 Thessalonians 5:18
