God's grace

Love means doing what God has commanded us, and He has commanded us to love one another, just as you heard from the beginning. 2 John 1:6

John knew and understood love. He lived it and portrayed it. Mind you he was not always perfect. He was one of those who wanted to command fire on a village who rejected Jesus, so I guess he learned it hanging around Jesus. 

As we spend time with the teachings of Jesus , and read the gospels we too hang around Jesus, and learn love. Love is patient and kind, just as Paul wrote, and more.

Tonight I went to a fund raiser dinner, and sat with a bunch of people I did not know. It was good for me. All my fellow church people were elsewhere, and it was good to stretch. There were 4 Aussie men at my table and an Indian couple. I learned grace. It was a welcome exercise. We all need to be reminded of God's grace. Amen!
