How To Demonstrate God’s Love Online

Our country is in the midst of mourning. This crisis is so terrible, so unthinkable, that in our quest to find something, anything to make sense of it all, we sometimes end up alienating one another at just the time when we should be coming together. There’s a lot that we need to take action on, much that we need to discuss, but right now, please, can we show a little love?

Christ Believers, we especially should be demonstrating empathy and love. After all, isn’t that why we go to church every week to learn how to do? Isn’t that why we study the Bible? Isn’t that what God has said we are to do in His Word? In 2 Corinthians 5:20, it says that we are “ambassadors for Christ, God making his appeal through us.” Since we are representing Christ, should we not strive to portray Him in our actions, even those that are online? I’ll admit, since Friday, I have been judgmental. I have been righteous. And now, it’s time to decrease myself, increase Him, and let my life reflect God’s grace. 
Here are a few ideas for ways that you can demonstrate God’s love online:

    “…it’s time to decrease myself, increase Him, and let my life reflect God’s grace.” This is SO true, and definitely right on time. Thanks for the reminder that God’s love starts with each and every one of us showing and sharing it with others.

    These are some good reminders. As Christians, we should be on “church behavior” all the time, not just when we are in the building!

    I love this Girly. You are preaching to the choir. I love that you aren’t pointing the finger at others but reflecting on where you see you need to grow and sharing your journey with us.

    Mama, I wish we could do a live news break – and make this the top news story of the hour. When it just seemed we were rebounding from the cruelty of opinions shared during the political campaigns and election day; we ALL had our hearts broken by the CT shootings, but some are using this moment in history to build up their platform or tear down someone else’s. I had found myself personally saddened by some of the images and shares which an associate has chosen to acknowledge & promote on their FB profile but it is not my place to respond back or dismiss it. I simply close my eyes and prayer for understanding. I applaud you for reminding us how we should live each and everyday, less of us and more of Christ.
