AllWays God’s Will: Selfless, Loving Service
We also know from the teachings of Jesus that only the believer who actively Loves his
or her neighbor attains the Kingdom of Heaven. Thus, even if we aren’t certain of our Life
Mission – and even if the “Fruits of the Spirit” test isn’t clear, we still know that Loving others is
allWays in harmony with God’s Will for our lives …
“Love one another as I have Loved you [i.e. self-sacrificially].”
~ Jesus (John 15:12+17 & John 13:34)
“Be steadfast and immovable, always excelling in the Work of the
Lord, because you Know that in the Lord your labor is never in vain.” ~ 1
Corinthians 15:58
“For the whole Law is summed up in one Commandment: You shall
Love your neighbor as yourSelf.” ~ Galatians 5:14
“Live as Children of the Light – for the fruit of the Light is all that is
Good and Right and True.” ~ Ephesians 5:8-9
“Above all, maintain constant Love for one another … Be hospitable to
one another without complaining. Like good stewards of the manifold
Grace of God, serve one another with whatever Gift each of you has
received.” ~ 1 Peter 4:8-10
“If we Love one another, God Lives in us, and His Love is perfected
in us … God is Love, and those who abide in Love abide in God, and
God abides in them.” ~ 1 John 4:12+16

There are opportunities every day (indeed, in every moment) to be a Child of God. Every
emotion felt is an opportunity to honestly express it. Every moment of surprise is an opportunity
to Love with selfless courage (as opposed to reacting with selfish fear). Every confrontation with
something new is an opportunity to stand in awe without analysis, pre-conception or judgment.
Every “coincidence” is a Wonder-full opportunity to see God “speaking” with you. Every time
you are either attacked or supported is an opportunity to look past the man-made labels of
“enemy” or “friend” and simply accept what is being given to you (be that gift the challenge to
lovingly forgive the “enemy” or the opportunity to be humbly thank-full for the “friend”).
One day of pro-active, Purpose-full work is enough to bring you Peace …
One day, every day …
