Today, the wind chill temperature is -28 degrees. We have chosen to remain inside and warm. Have you noticed that some people have become seemingly just as cold hearted as our weather? They seem to care very little about others and do very little to help people around them. It is sad to see a heart so cold and missing out on sharing love. They may have been deeply hurt by someone they cared about and this pain has caused them to close off their heart.
Matthew 24:10-12 says, “And then many will fall away and betray one another and hate one another. And many false prophets will arise and lead many astray. And because lawlessness will be increased, the love of many will grow cold.” In this prophesy of the end times, Jesus links increasing lawlessness to decreasing love. Don’t let your hearts grow cold by allowing lawlessness into your life. Let compassion grow within you as you discover how much God loves you. His love is steadfast, abundant and eternal. Follow Him and put aside lawless deeds, allowing your heart to respond to His love with a growing love from within you.
