The Holy Spirit gives us love
Romans 5:5 And this hope will not lead to disappointment for we know how dearly God loves us, because He has given us the Holy Spirit, to fill our hearts with His love.
The Holy Spirit fills our hearts with love.
Do you know anyone who is hard to love?
Genesis 27. Jacob stole Esau's blessing.
{tell story}
Genesis 33 Eau and Jacob come face to face for the first time. Esau forgives Jacob and filled with love for Jacob.
- It would be very hard to love Jacob if he did that to me.
- God says to love our neighbor as our self. So if we want to please God we must love everyone.
- But sometimes it's hard to love people... that's why God gave us the Holy Spirit, to help us love others.
- If we need help loving others, all we have to do is ask the Hoy Spirit And He will help us.
- Work on journaling
Decorate Journals
Journal project: Write someone you know who is unlovable.
Write reasons why they are.
Write something (or more) that is good about that person.
When we journal it can be a way of helping us talk to God (you can write prayers), and it can help us understand things God has for us.
