BEAUTY & THE BEAST.
Everyday, you will add a new principle from the previous day.
"A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. 35 By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." - John 13:34-35

In the next few days. Everything will be simple, it will challenge you if you haven't yet died to yourself. Every day, the challenges, the teachings and the expectations will grow. At first, it's more about your heart and your love for others. Through the weeks, you will be challenged to becoming a better mother or father and wife or husband. Eventually leading you to becoming a holy, reverent and righteous man or woman of God.
Do you believe that? Because God believes in you. Do not listen to the serpent on the ground, the devil is a liar.
___________________________
First, we have to establish that this life isn't about us.
Today, you will be the beast, not literally but metaphorically speaking. Everyone you see will be the beauty. See yourself as this 'being' who has to admire others because they are so precious, so valuable and beautiful.
From now. Everyone you see, hug them, spend time to talk to them and compliment them.
Make people smile, make people remember your good works so they can glorify the father who is in heaven. Most importantly, love them as Jesus loves YOU.
One day, you will have to pretend to love your co-worker, your wife's family members, or your husband's friends. You will have to pretend to love your daughter's friend's parents or your new neighbours across the street but what if you could TRULY love people? Like from the bottom of your heart. Everything begins and ends with Love.
(Prayer)
God, help me understand what love looks like by helping me open my arms to hold those in need and by helping me open my mouth to bless those that I see. God, I want to sincerely love the one infront of me. I pray to the Author of love and I ask for your heart of flesh and that you take my heart of stone. In the name of Jesus Christ, King of Kings, I pray. Amen.
