About this Episode
Do you ever wonder how deeply we're called to love those around us?
In today's episode of My Morning Devotional, guest Lauren Alessi invites us to explore this profound question through the lens of First John, Chapter 4. Lauren discusses the humbling truth that we only love because He first loved us. Delving into personal anecdotes, she shares the enduring wisdom of her grandmother, who said, "You have to love everybody. You do not have to like everybody." This episode challenges us to love authentically and unconditionally, even when it's difficult, as a reflection of our love for God.
Join Lauren for this heartfelt devotional as she prays for the strength to embody God's perfect love towards everyone we encounter, drawing from the unwavering love that God has shown us first.
