A daily devotional through the Bible speaking with God as Adam and Eve may have in the garden east of Eden. Our website http://alittlewalkwithgod.com

summary

As children, the first thing you probably learned about God was “God is love.” John learned it well as he walked with Jesus in His human form. John is sometimes called the disciple Jesus loved. I think it’s probably turned the other way as well because John truly learned what love means as he poured his heart into his letters to the churches.

John recognized all God's commands could be boiled down into the single directive to love. Love God. Love your brother and sister believers. Love you enemies. Love those in authority over you. Love those you might not agree with. Just love. God is the very essence of love. As you learned as a child, God is love.
