Christ showed His love through “concrete actions” rather than long explanations. He sought out the outcast, like the Samaritan woman at the well, and wasn’t afraid to be close to sinners. He shows us that God is “closeness, compassion and tender love.”
This is a powerful lesson for me. My belovedness is not an abstract idea; it’s a truth made real in the tangible actions of God in my life and in my own actions of love toward others.
As 1 John 3:18 tells us, “Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.”
What is one small, concrete action you can take today to show God’s love to someone else?
