“Grace, mercy and peace, which come from God the Father and from Jesus Christ the Son of the Father- will continue to be with you who live in the truth and love.” 2 John 1:3
Most everyone would desire to have the grace of God in their lives, and the mercy he provides as well as peace of mind. 2 John 1:3 explains to us that we can have all of those things and much more if we live in truth and love. The way we grow in truth and love is by developing a close relationship with Christ. We must learn to know him more intimately, to trust him more readily and to love him more supremely. He must be a part of our lives in every aspect. Truth and love are always connected. There is no love without truth. For believers, if something is not true it cannot be loving. This is displayed throughout God’s word. 1 Corinthians 13:6 tells us, ” Love does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with truth.” So, let us make Jesus the priority in our lives. Remember, he died for you and me so that we could live for him! PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
