Called to Love

“And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.” – Matthew 22:39 Each and every one of us is called to love by God. In late March, the Creed of the Beloved that I introduced over ten years ago, received a small upgrade. I have spoken this Creed daily in my personal life, and as you know, we say it as a congregation on Sundays. For the last six years I have thought about how we can live out the final phrase of the Creed. It states, “I can trust my friend Jesus and share His love with the world.” That is true, we should love the world. At Hour of Power, we are a global ministry and we love the world. However, as people, God actually doesn’t call Christians to love the world. He sends us into the world, but who does He call us to love?
