Praying from 1 John 4:8 relating to Love, Knowing God, God’s Nature.

Dear God, help me to understand that if I do not love, I do not truly know you. May your love fill my heart and guide my actions so that I may reflect your love to others. Thank you for being the ultimate example of love and for showing me how to love others as you have loved me. Amen.

Verse: He who doesn’t love doesn’t know God, for God is love.
1 John 4:8

This is a Command: Love. The verse commands the reader to love, as not loving means they do not know God.
