How to Do Everything In Love

Thursday, April 23, 2026
“Do everything in love." Four words that capture the essence of following Christ—not just in grand gestures of faith, not just when people deserve it, and not even when it feels natural—but everything. When Paul wrote these words, the Corinthian church was fracturing. People were choosing sides, flaunting their spiritual gifts, and arguing over who was right. They had knowledge, power, impressive abilities—but without love as their foundation, it was all just noise. Paul reminded them, and us, that love gives everything meaning. This isn't about manufacturing feelings or pretending everything is fine. Love isn't asking you to ignore the challenges; instead, it offers a different way through them. It’s about letting God’s love flow through us when relationships strain our grace, when circumstances test our faith, and when our own hearts feel empty. Because love isn't just something we do—it's who God is and who He created us to be. Today, in your ordinary moments and challenging conversations, remember: we love not because it’s easy, but because we’ve been loved at our most unlovable. Let that truth guide every word, every action, every response. Ask Yourself: How might today look different if I filtered every decision through the lens of love? Where do I find it hardest to choose love, and what might God want to teach me there?
