—1 John 4:13-21
by: Margaret Taylor.
Because we are loved, we have love and can walk in it, loving others. When we live in God and he lives in us by the abiding presence of his Holy Spirit, we are admonished and enabled to be the body, the continuing presence, of the living Christ. The Holy Spirit, himself, teaches us to love ( John 14:6). He admonishes us in love, as his children, just as he has instructed us to do with ours (Ephesians 6:4). In this way, his love is perfected in us and the power of love can be manifested boldly to others.
