Love Covers
The Father covered Jesus in His love. Jesus covers me in His love. Jesus brought the Father’s love down to my level. Now I need to cover other people with that love—not because I have to but because I am so full of God’s love that I have no other choice.
Jesus’ love completes me so that I am able to live as a complete person—not complete when I do better or more—but complete right now—just as I am. I don’t need to search for that next best thing to help me improve. I just have to tap into that love that I have already been given. Because of Him, I am complete, whole, and loved. I am secure to do what He wants me to do. I can reach out to other people and help them. His love covers a multitude of sins. When I show love to others it makes up for any mistakes that I make in the process of loving them.
I need to approach a world filled with incomplete people with a joy in my heart that comes only from Jesus’ love. Love covers a multitude of sins.
