Lead Us to Someone Who Needs Love

 

[Graphic of a sign]


“By day the Lord directs his love…”
—Psalm 42:8a

As we walk the pathway of life, God has imbued us with His power through the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit. We are to serve God as instruments of His mercy, grace, and love.

Each day people cross our path who need God’s love. Made in the image of God, they do not yet know Him personally. We become conduits of the vital, intimate presence of God.

The Holy Spirit uses us to demonstrate the depth of God's love to those He is irresistibly drawing to Himself.

If we remain sensitive to God's leading, we will sense when He is directing us to represent Him to those around us.

The Psalmist expresses this reality in Psalm 42:8:

By day the Lord directs his love, at night his song is with me—a prayer to the God of my life.

My prayer for each of us today: May the Holy Spirit lead us to someone who needs to experience the love of God flowing through us as instruments of His grace.
