If love comes first, then everything else will follow. Sometimes Christians get stuck on the "shoulds" and the "oughts" of life. Good Christians should do this or that or should not do this or that. Jesus talked about how the pharisees placed great burdens upon the backs of their followers, but refused to carry the loads themselves.
Behavior is important, but behavior is secondary. Love is primary. Love must come first. God is love. Let me say it again, God is love. If we begin to learn that God loves us, truly loves us, we can begin to love ourselves. Once that happens, His grace at work in our lives will begin to bring about changes in our lives. If love comes first, everything else will follow.
Dont allow your days to be filled with worry over whether or not you are a good person. Let your days be filled with God's love and you will naturally give it away.
It is a beautiful day in God's world, be sure to see the good. That includes yourself.
