Love shed for us

“When the Spirit of God has shed abroad the love of God in our hearts, we begin deliberately to identify ourselves with Jesus Christ’s interests in other people, and Jesus Christ is interested in every kind of [person] there is. We have no right in Christian work to be guided by our affinities; this is one of the biggest tests of our relationship to Jesus Christ.” (Emphasis added)

-       Oswald Chambers 

We must be careful to be faithful to His radical call, not preoccupied with how useful we may be. 

A friend recently told me she has felt challenged to do communion a lot more these days but she added, "not just in the literal sense." Love has been shed for us; let us now shed it abroad for others.

Shalom.
