Love That Looks Like God

Scripture: John 13:34

Devotional:

Pastor Steve challenged us not just to admire God’s love, but to imitate it. Loving like God often looks simple and unseen—choosing patience, extending grace, holding back words that wound. This kind of love requires humility and intention. Advent reminds us that love isn’t measured by what we feel, but by how we respond.

Reflect:

1. What situation is stretching my ability to love right now?

2. What would it look like to respond like Jesus?

Prayer:

Lord, shape my responses to look more like Yours. Help me slow down, listen, and choose grace where it’s needed most. Give me the humility to love the way You love, even when it costs me something. Amen.

Action Step:

Respond calmly in one moment today where you’d normally react quickly or defensively.
