1 John 4:7

1 John 4:7 "Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God."
I really like this Bible verse. It shows how it would be impossible to love without God, and if you love, you're a child of God. God has unconditional love for us, so we should share some of that with others. It doesn't matter what we say or what we do, He will always love us and forgive us. It is impossible for Him to be mad at us. It's not in his character. In my daily life, I want to take on that trait. We probably would have world peace if everyone just loved each other instead of getting mad at every little thing.

  1. I have never heard that verse before. It is a constant reminder that God loves everyone, and when we love somebody, that love comes from God. I was challanged from your post to be more loving to others, to be more like Jesus. Although I am not sure that God can't be mad at us (in Exodus he was mad at the Israelites), but even if he does get frustrated with us, he will love us no matter what. Where did you get this verse? Have you memorized it?
