Our focus today is 1 John 4:19
“We love Him because He first loved us.”
Ever hear a child protest, “He hit me back first”? As parents, we smile at the tangled logic. But in the kingdom of God, this upside‑down reasoning suddenly makes perfect sense. We love because God first loved us.
Before we spoke His name, He whispered ours.
Before we reached for Him, He ran toward us.
His love is the spark that ignites ours, God’s love never runs dry. When your heart feels slow to respond, remember, you are simply returning what He began. His love starts the story, and our love becomes its echo.

Today’s Prayer Thought: Father, thank You for loving me first. Help my life be a loud testimony of Your love to others.
