My Devotional Journal: Today's Our Daily Bread author, Monica La Rose, AT THIS LINK … tells of the shared unconditional love of Cap Dashwood and his black lab, Chaela, (see photo) who climbed mountain peaks together in Colorado EVERY DAY in 2019, … illustrating the kind of mutual and unconditional love which God showers on His children … ALWAYS!
The poignant story of the unconditional love shared by the mountain climber and his dog only touches on the extent that any born-again Christian has in the love showered on us EVERY MOMENT of EVERY DAY by our Lord. And that’s why you find this Christian coming back to be showered by God's unfailing love in His love letter to me - i.e., His word. And once again, from the linked song and the Scriptures above, as well as today’s ODB entry, I am bathed in my Lord’s unconditional and unfailing love.
Oh how I pray that any/all of us who know Christ will go out and worship Him today by sharing His love, mercy, and grace with others.
My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for showering me with Your love/grace again today - as all days I read of you in Your word.
My Prayer Today:</b> Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray that all reading here will join me, … to take the opportunities You give us today, Lord, to share Your love with others. … Amen
