All of our experiences of the past nine months are being knit together in our “wombs” as we prepare to celebrate birth this week. What will these final days of preparation include? Will our preparations and celebrations give birth to love?

Perfection in Love

For John Wesley, sin was a failure to love. Perfection in love is a process. The process is not always easy and not void of mistakes. Our faith journey is a process of developing our trust and faith in God and perfectness in love.

Genuine Love

Let love be genuine; hate what is evil, hold fast to what is good; love one another with mutual affection; outdo one another in showing honor.

Power to Unite

This is Trinity Sunday when we celebrate the three persons of God—Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. In this passage, Jesus claims the power that has been given to Him. Power to do good, to unite not to divide, to heal not to cause wounds, to bring people together, to cleanse their hearts, free from hate and ready to love.
