A Loving God
According to Dariush Ghobad of ERF in Germany, some of the refugees who have fled the Middle East and Central Asia are now having "eye-opening experiences" in Germany. "Your God is a loving God," they discover. So, how do they come to know this fact about our Heavenly Father? I'm sure in most cases, it's because Christians have demonstrated the love of God to them. This example should encourage all of us to reach out in love to the non-believers that the Lord brings our way. Let me leave you with this prayer from Oswald Chambers:
"O Lord, I would crave more and more to put on love like a garment, that in my contact with men that is what they will most lastingly recognise."(1)
