In Deed And Truth

I John 3: 18

Little children, let us not love with word or with tongue, but in deed and Truth.

John is addressing us as though we are still small tykes, which we are in God's sight. He's teaching us that mere words, nice conversation, is not the depth of the love we are to have for one another. 

Yes, the right word at the right time can do wonders to encourage, but we are not to stop there.

Our love needs to have feet, to do for one another what we cannot accomplish on our own, by ourselves. And use it to communicate the Truth of God's character with our godly attitudes, and follow through. 

Wash one another's feet.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus!
