1 John 3:14

We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren.  He who does not love his brother abides in death. 

Love is a powerful force and can change the dynamic of our lives when we choose to walk in it.  When we love we don’t hold grudges, try to control others, and live our lives in peace.  Fear keeps us out of love by creating thoughts about each other that may not be real.  Fear keeps us remembering past hurts, slights, disappointments, and unable to forgive.  When we choose to love we free ourselves from fear and death to live life, love, and peace.
