When was the last time, you gave a hug? One of those big ones that seemed to melt worry away. One that by its mere grasp was saying you are loved and cared about. When was the last time you went out for lunch with someone special. Whether somewhere fancy or a packed lunch near a park. What about using a vacation day to care for someone you love, that was in need. Letting them know that they’re worth your time too. What about an impromptu day of an adventure with one of your favorites. A fun car ride or a hike in the trails. A phone call with someone you care about, to remind them that you do. That despite your busy schedule, they are important enough, to be a part of your day. In our busyness of life, sometimes we forget to cherish the moments of opportunity to express a little extra love to one another. God asks us to love each other. Not by just being kind, but also appreciating in action, the blessing of everyone that He has placed in our lives. Cherish the moments, by cherishing them. Friend, may we go out and love on those we are so blessed to have in our life. For a heart that feels love, feels God’s love and in turn, life is so much sweeter for it.

1 John 4:7

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.

1 John 3:18 NIV

Dear children, let us not love with words or speech but with actions and in truth.

John 15: 11-12 NIV

I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be compete. My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.
