The great safety valve!


It's always nice to have a safety valve. 

1 Peter 4:8(NKJV)
And above all things have fervent love for one another, for “love will cover a multitude of sins.”  

Now do I think love alone will get you in to Heaven?  No I don't.  That takes believing in Jesus and inviting Him in to your life.  Have you done that yet?  No better time than right now.  Just have a conversation with Jesus.  "Dear Jesus…."

But once salvation is taken care of I think this is a great safety valve when you don't know what else to do.  Just love people.  Love people by simply being courteous and respectful to all.  Love people by getting them to smile and feel good.  Love people by showing them you care and trying to help them out.  We are the hands and feet of Jesus after all. 

Now that doesn't mean let people walk all over you and abuse you.  If the love you give out is abused then take appropriate steps.  But always start with love and move on from there.
