1 John 4:15-17
If anyone acknowledges that Jesus is the Son of God, God lives in them and they in God. And so we know and rely on the love God has for us. 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.
G3933 ὁμολογέω homologeō, to confess, acknowledge, agree, admit, declare; this can be a profession of allegiance, an admission of bad behavior, or an emphatic declaration of a truth
I love the sunshine, but I don’t love what it does to me. I know I have to use an umbrella and/or sunscreen to block out the bad parts. However, the bad parts don’t stop me from loving it. There are people in our lives that make them very hard to love. We often can’t even like them. However, with God inside of us, we can love them with His love. We can let God’s love shine through us on these people. I am sure we are not always the easiest people to love either. Thank goodness God loves us anyway too!
