All of us have probablyexperienced some healthy examples and several unhealthy examples.If your experience of love did not line up with scripture, you probablyhave some obstacles <strong>to</strong> overcome.

Ask the Lord <strong>to</strong>day.LESSONS FROM HOPSCOTCH AND LIFEThe game of hopscotch contains many rules that will put you out of thegame. And the enemy of your soul would love nothing more than <strong>to</strong>hinder your witness for Christ. The enemy cripples you with fear andsidetracks you with hurts and pain in relationships. The enemy hastrapped many of us <strong>to</strong>o long in feelings of unworthiness, guilt, shame,and bitterness from our past. These all hinder us from freely receivingthe love of God for ourselves and displaying that love <strong>to</strong> others. Beloved,don’t let the enemy win. He’s a defeated foe. Claim your vic<strong>to</strong>ry in Christ.Allow his love <strong>to</strong> fill you <strong>to</strong>day.God of love, fill me <strong>to</strong>day with your love. Cleanse me of anythingthat hinders me from living a life of love. I am a trophy of your grace,empowered <strong>to</strong> love others with your sacrificial love. Amen
