Have you ever tried typing into an iPhone the word “love” and found that for some reason it autocorrects to “live?” While I had noticed this in the midst of sending a text, I had never really thought about it. It wasn’t until I started reading “Love Does” by Bob Goff that I gave this a second thought (a blogger I follow recommended it- a great suggestion). He points out that fully loving and fully living are synonymous. Living a life full of love is the kind of life that Jesus invited us to be part of. We are called to live in and walk in love. It’s not enough to simply look the part.
You can tell how much one loves God by how well they love those around them. If asked, would those around you say that you walk in love?

For instance, this background is a picture of wallpaper I saw in a house and liked so I added the words to the photo. Hope your week is off to a great start!
