Limerick



A child of God is what we be
And love for one another should be
No matter our flaws, no matter our sin
God’s love will remain within
We are His, and He loves us all the same.

Potential actions to take in response



One practical way to respond to 1 John 3.1-3 is to practice love. The passage states that we should be like Jesus, and since Jesus was a model of love and compassion, we should try to emulate Him in our own lives. We can do this by being kind and generous towards others, even if they are different from us or don’t share our beliefs. We can also extend our love to those in need, whether they are close friends, family members, or strangers. This could look like donating to charities, volunteering at a local soup kitchen, or simply lending an ear when someone needs to talk. Practicing love in our daily lives is the best way to honor the command of 1 John 3.1-3.
