Living the Message

We love because He first loved us. - I John 4:19

This morning at MCC, we were blessed by the kids who sang "Jesus loves me" after Taylor's baptism. A good reminder for us all!

We read from John 21 where Jesus asked Peter 3 times if he loved Him. Each time, Peter answered Yes, and Jesus told him to feed His sheep. It seems Jesus is trying to get at the heart of the matter or Peter's true feelings by asking him in these different ways. It's one thing to say you love Jesus, but you show it by your willingness to serve Him and being willing to follow Him into the lives of the people who need Him.

Question of the Week: What type of love do you have for Jesus? How does Jesus want to use you - right where you are on your spiritual journey?
