Chaplain's Remarks

Afternoon Friendly Friends of PPN,
Image
When you looked at the image above, did you see a vase, or two faces looking each other? We see things differently depending on how we look at them.
 
We can view God in the same way. Our experiences and views often influence how we see God - maybe we see Him like a master, or to others a father. But when we read His word and share with each other the many things He has done for us, the picture we have gets a bit clearer. 
"No one has ever seen God. But if we love each other, God lives in us. If we love each other, God’s love has reached its goal. It is made perfect in us."
1 John 4:12 ICB
 
What I think this verse is showing us is, though we cannot see God physically, it's His love within us that shows the world what He is like. Because He is love.
 
"And so, we know the love that God has for us, and we trust that love. God is love. Whoever lives in love lives in God, and God lives in Him."
1 John 4:16 ICB
 
So, what kind of picture of God are we showing each other? What are our friends and family seeing when they look at us?
Especially now, when there are so many things trying to distort how we view God, let us remember that when we live and share God's love with one another, the clearer the picture we want to share gets.
Many Blessings,
Pr Andy
