Be the example in love

Love in Action: Demonstrating God’s Love to Others

1. Living Love Boldly

1 Timothy 4:12 ESV

Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.

Choosing to live out the love of Christ.

Talk about lazer tag story and just choosing to lead by example.

to dementrate Gods love to others. to be able to show that love so that others can see gods love through you!

2. Embrace Sacrificial Love

Romans 5:8 ESV

but God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

God showed the ultimate sacrifce for us in love by sending his son Jesus to Die on the cross for our sins

1 John 4:10–12 ESV

In this is love, not that we have loved God but that he loved us and sent his Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; if we love one another, God abides in us and his love is perfected in us.

he paved the way for us and he did it for how much that he loved us.

I love reading this scripture and shows that before we even made to choice to love him he already loved us.

It talks about our love is perfected in us. that he abeides in us to be able to show his love to one another

3. Practical Love Lived Out

1 Corinthians 13:4–7 CSB

Love is patient, love is kind. Love does not envy, is not boastful, is not arrogant, is not rude, is not self-seeking, is not irritable, and does not keep a record of wrongs. Love finds no joy in unrighteousness but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

we need to be able to live out these words.

we need to be kind not rude

not rejoice in wrong doing but in truth

Reanna tought me this example is to but your name in place of Love and think about those things.

Faithlife Study Bible Chapter 13

jealous Refers to the intense desire to advance at the disadvantage of someone else. Those who are jealous resent the success of others.

boast Refers to the desire to obtain adoration or acknowledgment from others by explaining to others your own self-worth (usually without them asking to know about it). See note on 1 Cor 1:29.

conceited Refers to self-admiration that leads a person to consider himself or herself better than others.

13:5 dishonorably A failure to show respect and honor to others. The wealthy Corinthian believers dishonored the poor believers (11:17–21). Some of the Corinthian women also dishonored themselves (see note on 11:6).

keep a record of wrongs Refers to the refusal to forgive someone of a wrongdoing.

13:6 truth The Greek word used here, alētheia, refers to the gospel message and stands in contrast to “unrighteousness.” Love rejoices in this truth because the gospel demonstrates God’s love (Rom 5:8).

13:7 bears all things Involves enduring difficulties, and even taking on (spiritually) the difficulty of others (being compassionate; see 1 Cor 9:12).

hopes all things Exhibiting confidence in God and His promises. See note on Eph 1:18.

endures all things Includes hardships and persecution (see 2 Cor 11:23–28).

What are some of those we need to work on?

Ask God to help to show love to others.

I feel like there is sometimes I get so excited about something and then it does not workout but it was because it was my intention and not Gods.
