Living in God's Love: Proclaiming and Forgiving
Summary
### Summary
Today, we gathered to partake in communion, reflecting on the profound sacrifice of Jesus Christ. As we remember His body broken and His blood shed for us, we are reminded of our role in proclaiming His death, resurrection, and the salvation He offers. This proclamation is not just through words but through our lives, demonstrating His sufficiency and provision in our struggles and victories.
We delved into 1 Corinthians 2:9-12, emphasizing the importance of understanding the things freely given to us by God through His Spirit. This understanding is crucial for living a life that is not just about survival but thriving in the fullness of what God has prepared for us. We are called to live impactful lives, not by our own abilities but through the love of God within us.
The deepest part of God is love. This love is not about miraculous signs or supernatural experiences but about knowing Him intimately. If we feel condemned or unworthy, it indicates that we do not yet fully know His love. To know God more, we must spend time with Him, not just through structured study but through genuine, heartfelt communion.
Galatians 5:22-23 teaches us that the fruit of the Spirit begins with love, which then leads to joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. Perfect love casts out fear, including the fear of not measuring up. Even if we have made significant mistakes, God’s love restores us to His perfect plan, not a second-best version.
We also discussed the practical application of love, especially towards those who have wronged us. Romans 5:8 reminds us that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. This ultimate act of love sets the standard for how we should love others, even those who seem unlovable. Forgiveness is a crucial aspect of this love, as illustrated by a personal testimony of forgiving someone who had caused deep hurt.
In conclusion, the only way to truly love others is to experience and understand God’s love for us. This love transforms our hearts, enabling us to extend grace and compassion even to those who have wronged us. As we grow in this love, we fulfill our calling to live lives that reflect the heart of God.

### Bible Reading
1. 1 Corinthians 2:9-12: "But, as it is written, 'What no eye has seen, nor ear heard, nor the heart of man imagined, what God has prepared for those who love him'—these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God. For who knows a person's thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. Now we have received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the things freely given us by God."
2. Galatians 5:22-23: "But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, self-control; against such things there is no law."

By living out this proclamation, we demonstrate to the world the transformative power of His love and grace. [40:58]

Day 3: The Deepest Part of God is Love
The deepest part of God is not found in miraculous signs or supernatural experiences but in His love. If we feel condemned or unworthy, it indicates that we do not yet fully know His love. To know God more, we must spend genuine, heartfelt time with Him. This intimate knowledge of God’s love transforms our perception of ourselves and our relationship with Him. It is through this deep, personal communion with God that we begin to understand the true nature of His love, which is unconditional and restorative. [01:01:18]

Day 5: Forgiving and Loving the Unlovable
Romans 5:8 reminds us that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. This ultimate act of love sets the standard for how we should love others, even those who seem unlovable. Forgiveness is a crucial aspect of this love, transforming our hearts to extend grace and compassion. By reflecting on Christ’s sacrificial love, we are called to forgive those who have wronged us, recognizing that we too have been forgiven. This act of forgiveness not only frees us but also reflects the heart of God to those around us. [01:19:26]
Colossians 3:13 (ESV): "Bearing with one another and, if one has a complaint against another, forgiving each other; as the Lord has forgiven you, so you also must forgive."

heard it over the years but when I came back to the Lord when I came back to him I grew up in a Christian home I grew up I got saved when I was four years old and I lived as the as a Christian home you know as a believer I loved God you know did all the stuff all the right stuff went to church went to youth group blah blah blah blah I was the Christian kid in school you know all of that kind of stuff and then I went to college and college has a way of testing you to see what you're really made of so a lot of it was head knowledge there wasn't a lot of heart knowledge and while I was there I started hanging out with the wrong crowd let's just call it that the wrong crowd and the wrong crowd took me deeper and deeper into sin now they didn't take me there I chose it was my choice by the end of that by the end of college well by the end of college yeah by the time the college kicked me out of school for not showing up for classes I was as deep as you would ever more deep than I thought I would ever go into sin and one of the guys that I grew up with in grade school junior high high school from our neighborhood lived a couple miles from me he went to the same school and he saw in that he saw who I was becoming and he went back to my hometown and told everybody including my dad told him details it broke my dad's heart I still remember the day that I think he must have heard because everything changed and I was like what just happened somebody told me oh I'll call him now I have to make sure Dave is there any Daves here no Daves okay well to protect him I'm going to change his name Dave Dave had been telling everybody that I was doing XYZ and my parents found out and I immediately hated him I mean I hated him and I was in a frame of mind at that point that I hated him so much that I would have killed him I know that sounds like a lot that sounds excessive but that's sin that's the wages of sin is death and you hate somebody long enough Jesus said that's the same as murder whether you do it or don't do it it's murder it's death and I hated him one day I was at a basketball game high school basketball game and I'm sitting in my seat with some other friends a bunch of other friends and I hated him and I hear a noise behind me and I turn around and it's Dave and Dave goes oh hey John how you doing and I stood up and I turned around and I put my finger in his chest I said if I ever see you again I'll kill you I meant it I hated him I hated him years go by years go by Lord has mercy on me oh Jesus praise God for his mercy praise God for his mercy praise God for his goodness for his love towards us for his love towards me and I'm just now I'm trying to sort this out and walking it through and I still remember it was James Dobson this is James Dobson on Focus on the Family it was on KTIS I'm driving to work and I'm listening to James Dobson and he says this he goes if you can't forgive people God can't forgive you that's scripture that's not my opinion that's not he Jesus said it he says if you don't forgive others I can't forgive you and immediately Dave came into my into my mind it's just immediately and as soon as as immediately he came into my mind I was filled with rage again I was just I hated that guy I just hated him and I went no way no way you're not talking about him and God said if you can't forgive Dave I can't forgive you just mess me up for a whole day I just messed me up I'm like no way not him okay there's other people that aren't quite as annoying not him and I went through the whole day and the Holy Spirit did not let up on me you need to forgive him so I'm on my way home that night and I'm driving and I'm just I'm praying I'm like Lord come on I can't do that I just can't I don't have it in me and the Holy Spirit said I know you don't have it in you give it to me I went okay because here's the deal I'm not gonna I don't play games with God I don't I don't you know look God this is what I'm doing and I've got something else behind my look look over here I'm not gonna I'm not gonna okay I forgive Dave because he knows my heart I mean there's no you can't fake that one you can't fake any of it so I'm like okay Lord here's the deal I can't forgive him I don't have it but I'm gonna give you the your Lord I give this to you I don't have it in me I don't know how you're gonna do it it'll be a miracle it'll be a miracle Lord I I don't know how but I'm gonna give it to you I trust you Lord you take it and I just went on with the rest of my day and that conviction ended it was like it was gone it was done the Lord just wanted me to come to a point where I just okay Lord I give him to you I give this whole situation to you months passed months and months and months and if I ever heard his name I would I would just instantly be just filled with with rage and one day I was I was at my parents house and my mom mentioned him and for the very first time my first thought was I should be mad and the second thought was I'm not mad why am I not angry I was like that's weird it was the first time in all those years that I didn't just immediately boil with rage when I thought of him I was like wow that's something that's different okay that's different how can I love him because God showed me to love him because while I was still a sinner he forgave me and he loved me so I thought wow that is really interesting so I go on and you know months go by again and I was somewhere else and all of a sudden I thought about him I just it just hit you know that thought came back into my mind and I was like okay that's just really weird not only was I not mad I was actually a little concerned about him like I cared about him I was like okay what I don't get this because I didn't do anything I didn't study you know verses daily to forgive Dave I didn't I didn't you know I didn't confess over and over I like Dave I like Dave or at least you know I don't hate him as much
