Daily Reading for Personal Growth, 40 Days with God
17 (A)[a]And whosoever hath this [b]world’s good, and seeth his brother have need, and [c]shutteth up his compassion from him, how dwelleth the love of God in him?
18 [d]My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue only, but in deed and in truth.
19 [e]For thereby we know that we are of the truth, [f]and shall before him assure our hearts.
20 For [g]if our hearts condemn us, God is greater than our heart, and knoweth all things.
21 [h]Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, then have we boldness toward God.
22 (B)[i]And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things which are pleasing in his sight.
23 (C)This is then his commandment, that we believe in the Name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave commandment.
24 (D)For he that keepeth his commandments, dwelleth in him, and he in him: and hereby we know that he abideth in us, even by that [j]Spirit which he hath given us.
