Receive God’s Love to Give It (30OA-17)

You can’t give what you haven’t first received. Do we receive the Love of God so we can give Divine Love and not broken human love?

 We can’t give what we haven’t first received. We cannot teach something that we haven’t first learned. We learn how to love from our family. We also need to learn how to love from God and learn how to receive His love so we can share it with others. God loved us while we were yet sinners, and so when we realize that and receive that we can start to live out that merciful love to all that might hurt us or offend us.
