Empowered to Love
A devotional for Thursday
“You will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you…”
Acts 1:8
Introduction:
Loving your neighbor isn’t something we pull off by willpower. It’s fueled by the Spirit. God doesn’t send us out empty-handed; He equips us with compassion, courage, and discernment to love beyond our limits.
Reflection:
The Spirit who moved Jesus to cross boundaries and sit at unexpected tables is the same Spirit who moves in you. When you feel underqualified or unsure, remember: you’re not loving in your own strength.
Question:
Where do you need the Spirit’s courage to step out in love this week?
