"By this we shall know that we are of the truth," 1 John 3:19.
When we love for real - not just religious words. You know, talking that sounds, well, like, stained glass. Like, Go in peace; Be warmed; Be filled. But not give what's needed. Just thin air. Has no body to it. No substance. Real love: works. Actually, works. Some thing got done. Like, see a brother's (or sister's) need and open the heart. Like, share the world's goods with them. Like, lay down lives for each other. Real. Sure. True love. By this we shall know. We are of the truth. We're of what's real. And our hearts, opened, find assurance.
Indeed, we surely believe in the name of God's son, Jesus Christ. And, so we find a brother or sister today, and we share our lives. Safe and sure, together, we give thanks. Blessed assurance.
