10th Day of Christmas God is love. Whoever lives in love lives - TopicsExpress



          

10th Day of Christmas God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God in them. This is how love is made complete among us so that we will have confidence on the day of judgment: In this world we are like Jesus. There is no fear in love. But perfect love drives out fear, because fear has to do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in love. We love because he first loved us. Whoever claims to love God yet hates a brother or sister is a liar. For whoever does not love their brother and sister, whom they have seen, cannot love God, whom they have not seen. And he has given us this command: Anyone who loves God must also love their brother and sister. —from the First Letter of John O Prince of Peace, we see our world controlled and driven by fear. We are tempted to be drawn into this fear continually. Bring us instead into your perfect love, the love that drives out fear. May we find our hope completely in you. May our hearts know joy in the face of this world’s fear.
