Did you feel unloved today, even if just for a minute? Remember, the One who said He IS love lives within you. He’s there all the time. That means you are loved always. Can you imagine continual unconditional perfect love? You have it! Then, in that moment when you’re standing in front of the person who is very hard to love, you can say, “Ok, Lord, please take it from here and love her because I can’t right now.”  Just think…Jesus came to live within you the moment you accepted His death on the Cross. He moved in, bringing all that He is with Him.  He is Love. Peace. Joy. Patience. Humility. Kindness. Gentleness. Faithfulness. Wisdom. Truth. Mercy. Power. (To name a few.)  All this is always with you. Always close. Always perfect. Always sufficient. Always accessible. What a gift! What a treasure! 

I have been crucified with Christ; it is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me; and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me” [Galaltians 2:20]
