Why do you want love to grow bigger?
So you can bear more fruit. So God will be honored.
Memorize This Week
10 so that you may approve what is excellent, and so be pure and blameless for the day of Christ,

Make the Best Choice
Sometimes we don’t know the right thing to do. We have so many choices on how to spend our time, our money, our energy.
We need discernment.
When Paul prayed for his fellow believers in Christ in Philippi, he prayed with purpose. He wanted their love to abound more and more in discernment (Philippians 1:9).
He wanted their love to lead them to make good choices (Philippians 1:10). To keep them pure.
When love fulfills its purpose, it blooms. It meets the needs of others and it brings praise to God (Philippians 1:11).
As you meditate on and memorize Philippians 1:10-11 this week, ask God to help your love grow in the best direction, too.
Such a great post, Lisa! Love for Christ really does help us make choices…always wanting to honor Him. Thank you, my friend.
