Great Gift of Love | 1 John 4:7-12

The greatest gift of love. 1 John 4:9. triciagoyer.com

Saturday Scripture

1 John 4:7-12

7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God. 8 Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love. 9 This is how God showed his love among us: He sent his one and only Son into the world that we might live through him. 10 This is love: not that we loved God, but that he loved us and sent his Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins. 11 Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. 12 No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and his love is made complete in us.

Prayer

Papa God,
Thank you for the greatest gift I could ever receive, for giving your one and only Son so that I could have life in You. Help me keep You at the center of my life, and not just during the holidays, but every day. Because you have changed me with your love, help me spread that love to those around me.

God’s love is a gift. Have you opened it? 1 John 4:7-12 on @TriciaGoyer

Hope of Future Glory | Romans 8:18

Despite the pain of this world, we have such an incredible hope to hold tight to. Romans 8:18 triciagoyer.com

Saturday Scripture

Romans 8:18

I consider that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory that will be revealed in us.

Prayer

Heavenly Father,
My heart aches for all the pain and brokenness our world is facing right now. I can’t imagine life without the hope I have in you. The pain we face now can’t compare the the unfathomable glory to come. This season, may I not be distracted with the trappings of Christmas, but focus on the GOODS NEWS of Christ coming to save us. I pray for those who are lost, hurt, and despairing. May they find comfort in you, and if there is anyway I can further your Kingdom, use me! Thank you for the the greatest Christmas gift I could ever receive.

The world is hurting. Remember Romans 8:18 & cling to hope. —@TriciaGoyer

Mealtime Devotions | When Less is More {Plus a Giveaway!}

Dig deeper with your family at dinner! Check out Whit's End Mealtime Devotions by Tricia Goyer

Mealtime Prayer:

Ask God to show you ways you can give to others things that matter to you.

Appetizer:

Fill a small cup with warm water. Put a couple tablespoons of a favorite drink in a large cup. (Make sure the cups aren’t see-through.) Hold up the cups so everyone can see how full they are. Ask which cup they’d rather have. After they choose, show them the inside of the cups. Why did they choose the one they did? How did they feel when they first saw the amounts? Which tasted better.

Main Course:

What matters more, amount or content? What would mean more: If a person with a truckload of cookies offered you one cookie, or if a friend who had only one cookie gave it to you? Why?

A similar thing happen in the Bible. Read Mark 12:41-44.

Table Talk:

  • Why was the widow’s coin worth more than what the others gave? Why do you think she gave it all?
  • If you gave your last coin away like she did, how would you survive?
  • What stops you from giving sometimes?
  • What can you give today? Who can you give it to?

Vitamins & Minerals:

[Jesus said,] “They all gave out of their wealth; but she, out of her poverty, put in everything—all she had to live on” (Mark 12:44)
