My one prayer for the church would be to learn to love each other, believer and non-believer. Love is not an emotion it is a verb (an action). Love does no harm to it's neighbor.
Love is feeding the hungry. Love is helping a person who has sinned be praying for them and comforting them, not judging or gossiping about them. Love is giving to the needy or helping the unpopular. Love is helping a single mother even when you don't get recognition or anything in return.
Love is feeling sympathy for another while you hurt with them, cry and pray with them. Love covers a multitude of sins. It does not embarass the sinner, it covers and comforts the sinner. Love is gentle and kind to other people. It lets itself be last so others needs are met first. It is so undemanding and humble. It lives in peace with others as it meets their needs.
The world will know that we are Christians by our love.
For God so loved the world that he gave His best.
Nothing can separate us from the love of God, not our shortcomings, failures, anger or a plethora of other things.
There is no force in the universe stronger than God's awesome love.
Love draws the ungodly and hateful.
Love sets people free from all bondages.
Love heals relationships.
Love builds families.
Love causes us to give unconditionally.
Love moves us to help other people.
Love breaks down barriers.
Love demolishes our differences.
Love binds us together.
Love causes us to protect each other.
Love causes us top pray for each other.
Love welcomes the lonely.
Love is pure light and draws us out of darkness.
Love is blind to church denomination
Love believes the best about others
Love is quick to forgive
Love has no fear or worry.
I pray that the church will be filled with this love by the Holy Spirit.
