Finding your personal mission for living with more love

Hello friend!

We all have people we admire, but the people we cherish the most are those who radiate love. These kinds of friends and family make us feel better about ourselves and the world every time we are around them.  

We’re guessing you’re this kind of person. Yes, you. Why do we know this?  

As a woman of faith, we know you’re doing so much to spread love and light in your circles. It doesn’t matter if our natural personalities are extroverted or introverted, each of us can give love in the way the Spirit directs us.  

President Camille Johnson said, “When we prioritize the first and second great commandments — love of God and love of our neighbor and family — then the things that don’t have eternal significance drop off the list.”  

As followers of Jesus Christ, we are women who do our best to emulate His example, reminding others of God’s love for them. Your love, in whatever way you share it, has a ripple effect that is far-reaching and known by God.

Let go: We can see outside of ourselves and love with our whole hearts when we let go of things that weigh us down physically, emotionally, spiritually. How? Pray to ask what is holding us back, humbly listen for the answer, then make changes with faithful confidence.  

Seek: Ask for guidance to give love as Jesus would. “As you create proximity and an intimacy with the Savior, by definition, it brings everyone around you closer too, not further. Being close to the Savior creates a space where I can now be partner with the Savior in His efforts.” Steve Young (from The Law of Love in Action

Embrace: Welcome God’s children into our lives with grace. Melinda Brown said it this way, "We can generously love, no limits necessary.” We can be the ones to say, “Come as you are; we love you because you’re you.”  

Offer: Give ourselves the calling to be the person with the biggest heart. No permission needed to say hello first, extend the table, give the compliment, bring the tissues, or show up with pom poms to cheer the loudest.  

Accept: Hold on to God’s pure love for each of us as His beloved children. When we remember that we are loved, it becomes natural to extend more love to others.  

 

“The law of love can’t just belong to any one religion, because it governs the universe. It supersedes all other laws as the governing law. It makes no distinction between religion, socioeconomic background, geography, language, or cultural difference: those all get gently enfolded and subsumed into the law of love.”  Steve Young
