"Jesus said, By this [love] all people will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another." John 13:35 AMP
When we demonstrate God's Love, it distinguishes the believer from the rest of the world. Notice Jesus did not say that people will know that you are my disciples if you promote My agenda, or wear Christian T-shirts, face cap or bracelet or have a gospel decal on your car; but rather if you "love one another". A watching world will be persuaded not when our values are promoted but when we become Ambassadors of Love. The vivacious virtue of Love distinguishes the Christian.
From the very beginning, God's plan was to develop a people that reflected His Love Character and the one who remains in love remains in God, and God remains in him. Believers are God's advertisement to a watching society as to how individuals could best live in that society. The love of God will always be the best anchor the Church has to hold on to. Love always makes a difference and always brings out the best no matter what. We are His purveyors, representing Him to the world. When we love as He has loved us, it will always make the difference and people will notice.

Declare This: I am making a difference as I express Your love, and as I do this many more souls are won into Your kingdom in Jesus name Amen.
