Whatever God gives us is a gift. Our faith is a living, breathing relationship with the Creator of the universe. Next we receive the ongoing gift of His friendship. Love more deeply. A dedicated leader is committed to praying for those he leads.
Love is the most important thing.
Love beckons others to come to God and to us. I can't minimize the importance of drawing people to us. Before you object and say that this is arrogant, consider that God has chosen us to be His representatives, His ambassadors. We are to embrace the love of God, to experience it so deeply, that we live it. It is the love of God within us that is shown to and felt by others.
