Is Love Your “Trademark?” A new Prayer Blog from Oasis Ministry, December 1, 2011
12/01/2011
Blessed Advent, everyone! As we again celebrate that God’s love has come down, my prayer for you is that you will experience His love for you in a greater way than ever before.
This morning in my studies I was “washed over” by God’s Spirit as I read Psalm 145:17. I looked it up in several versions but I love the way The Message says it:
Everything God does is right— the trademark on all his works is love.
So ask yourself this question…Is God’s love the “trademark” of all that I do and say in my community? The dictionary defines a “trademark” as: “a distinguishing characteristic or feature firmly associated with a person or thing.” We know that God’s “trademark” is always love. It was His love that sent His Son, Jesus, as a precious human baby into the world to rescue us from the depravity of sin and death. And the Spirit of God indwells those who are truly His disciples. So shouldn’t love be our “trademark” too? Take some time to pray about it this month. Merry Christmas! (yes, it is OK to say MERRY CHRISTMAS!)
Blessings, Gina
