God's love for us in Christ isn't something we simply receive, it is something that reshapes us. When we know we are truly loved by God, we don't have to hide, perform, fear, compromise, or compete. Real love produces a different way of living toward God and toward others. If I am truly loved by God, what should that love produce in me?
Text: 1 John 2:3–17; 5:1–5
God's love doesn't simply change what we believe—it reorders what we love. As our love for God grows, obedience becomes the natural expression of that love and the way we resist the competing loves of the world.
