LET LOVE BE YOUR HIGHEST GOAL.
1 Corinthians 14:1a, NLT ~ Let love be your highest goal!
Dear Friends, today I am reminded that LOVE should be our highest goal in everything we say, do and even think! LOVE is the most important thing, every other thing is secondary to the goal of LOVE!
Dear Lord, please help us always remember to intentionally make love our highest goal!
Please Lord, help us always remember that love is not optional!
Please Lord, help us always remember that God needs our love!
