Good morning and welcome to this mid-week post. Sorry I have not posted in awhile. I pray this finds you well.
In the late Professor Drummond's The Greatest Thing in the World, he tells of meeting with natives in the interior of Africa who remembered David Livingstone. They could not understand a word he uttered, but they recognised the universal language of love through which he appealed to them. It had been many years since that Christian hero had passed their way, but the very remembrance of his presence among them would kindle a friendly smile.
It is this very selfsame universal language of love—Christlike love—that we must have if we are going to be used of God. The world does not understand theology or dogma; but it understands love and sympathy. A loving act may be more powerful and far-reaching than the most eloquent sermon. - Anecdotes, Incidents and Illustrations.
1 John 4:7
7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.
