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 (1 John 4:16; NIV).
Lord,
Please help me, every day,
In all I feel, think, do and say,
To live in love, rejoice, and pray
For others.
Lord,
Please help me, through the years,
To walk with you, and face my fears,
Accepting sickness, loss and tears
With courage.
Lord,
Please help me: hear my plea
To live in you, and you in me,
Then all my sinfulness will flee
Your presence.
Lord,
Please help me: give me grace
To serve you till I’ve run my race,
Then I will see you face to face
Forever.
Now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then we will see face to face (1 Corinthians 13:12; NRSV).
