The Daily Invitation
Every day we have an opportunity to discover more about God and respond to his invitation to live in love and experience freedom. The Daily Invitation outlines the many ways Scripture calls us to know and follow God. By reflecting on these promises, believers are called to receive God’s give of grace, seek him earnestly, and surrender their lives.

The Love of God
Is full knowledge of God’s love even possible? Maybe in those holy moments in the gathering of believers in the unity of the Spirit, we can grasp (as Paul said) something like an understanding of God’s love. It seems to me that the moment we grasp this love, we realize once again that his love surpasses knowledge. God’s love overloads my capacity to understand.
Promised Presence
God made a way to set his Spirit in our hearts forever. Through the forgiveness of our sins and the washing of Christ’s blood over our conscience, we are justified in the eyes of God. We become worthy vessels to carry the Spirit of God within us.
Abide In My Love
God has invited us to know him through encounters with his love. Sometimes this looks like revelation and understanding of his word. Other times it seems like renewed strength to persist in the task before us. It could be a renewal of the heart, or it might be a healing of the soul. All these things matter; abiding in God includes every part of our being.
Love Through Deliverance
Today is an invitation to put your trust in God beyond a feeling and recognize that God’s love is expressed to you in his deliverance. Could it be that God wants to set you free where you are asking for comfort? Where you are asking for peace, does God seek to provide?
Nor…
So how do we respond? We don’t need to feel condemned for having difficulties in knowing and loving God. The whole point of Romans 8 is that we do not live under condemnation, yet we so easily live as if we do. In theory, we can be convinced that this promise is true for us and still be unsure of how this plays out in reality.
A Radical Promise
Pause today and return to love. So many barriers to freedom are broken down when we ask, “what does it mean to love God?”
