Those who have received God's love will reflect it, rest in it, and respond to others with it.

The post 2025 6 29 Gods Perfect Love – 1 John 4 16b-21 appeared first on Galilee - Gorham, ME.

Matthew 5:43-48 is Jesus' final antithesis in the Sermon on the Mount: “You have heard it said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy,' but I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.” He highlights how religious teachers of Jesus' day distorted the original intent of the Old Testament […]

Perfect Love drives out fear...and envy! Proverbs 27:4 says “Anger is cruel and fury overwhelming, but who can stand before jealousy?”  James 3:15 even says envy is demonic in nature! Though it may seem like jealousy and comparison have the power, we're going to talk about a greater power that far surpasses and overcomes, Jesus! When we understand Jesus came as God's one and only Son tosave us, to have life to the full now and into eternity, when we didn't deserve it, then we want to show this grace and love for others, putting their needs before our own like Jesus did for us. It all goes back to the cross. Picture Jesus on the cross, dying for you, when we do, what more could we askfor? What's there to be jealous of?

"Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good, for his steadfast love endures forever." Psalm 136:1 Have you ever wondered if there's truly someone who knows you, loves you, and is always there, even when the world feels silent? For years, I searched for meaning in the noise of a thousand opinions—everyone had their ideas about who God was. But it was in my loneliest moments that I felt a gentle whisper of love telling me I was never alone. That's when I discovered the truth: God isn't distant or angry; He's a good, good Father who delights in me just as I am. So, during times of doubt, remember that a loving Creator cares for and supports you. Likewise, I once heard a delightful story about a young man who discovered just how much he was loved. One night, he fell asleep to the sound of a gentle whisper assuring him, "You are never alone." The next morning, he woke up to find his parrot perched on his pillow, repeating the phrase, “You're a good, good Father!” It turned out his feathered friend had been secretly listening to his playlist. This humorous encounter serves as a reminder that God's love can come to us in the most unexpected ways, filling our hearts with joy and laughter.  Luke 12:32 says, "Fear not, little flock, for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom." Just like this young man and I, many of you have felt that comforting presence during your quiet moments of prayer. When you whisper your innermost thoughts to God, He responds with a gentle reassurance that you are never alone. That's why Isaiah 41:10 reminds us, saying, “So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God.” Allow this promise to wash over you, bringing peace that surpasses all understanding. As we celebrate Father's Day, take a moment to express gratitude for every father figure in your life. Their love mirrors the unconditional love of our Heavenly Father. Remember that God anticipates your heart's desires even before you voice them.  Embrace the knowledge that He is always working behind the scenes, crafting answers that align with His perfect will for your life. Matthew 7:11 says, “If you then, though you are evil, know how to give good gifts to your children, how much more will your Father in heaven give good gifts to those who ask Him!”  Prayer for the Day!“Dear Heavenly Father, thank You for being our good, good Father. Help us to feel Your presence in our lives and remind us daily of Your love. May we share that love with others around us. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.”

WEEK 5: HIS DISCIPLINE IS PERFECTJoseph: In God's HandsBeholding the Perfect Love in God's CorrectionAs the famine reaches devastating proportions, Jacob's family in Canaan is forced to seek food in Egypt. Sent there by their father to find bread and grain, God has a greater purpose for Joseph's brothers: to use this hardship to expose their past sins. Through Joseph's orchestrated encounters, they experience deep conviction, leading them to repentance – a work only God accomplishes. Even in their desperation, God – whose discipline is perfect – actively weaves together events to bring about their spiritual restoration.In today's message, we encounter the uncomfortable but life-giving truth: God's discipline is not punishment—it's love in action. As we walk through Genesis 42, we witness how the Lord uses pain, hunger, confrontation, and isolation to call Joseph's brothers out of sin and into surrender. God isn't interested in revenge—He wants restoration.Just as He did for Joseph's brothers, God lovingly disciplines us to break the chains that bind us. He allows our struggles to expose the sin that blinds us and uses suffering to lead us to repentance, healing, and freedom.Key Takeaways:God's discipline is always motivated by love, never wrath.Pain often reveals what pride and self-deception try to hide.The path to healing often goes through hardship—but it's never wasted.God uses methods like scarcity, confrontation, and even loneliness to draw us back to Him.Real surrender begins when we stop running and start repenting.Whether you're in a season of relational pain, spiritual dryness, or facing the fallout of past decisions, today's message is a reminder: God's discipline is not rejection—it's proof that you're His.Related Scriptures for Study:Genesis 42Hebrews 12:5–11Proverbs 3:11–12Revelation 3:19If you're in the furnace right now, don't despair. Ask God what He wants to show you. His discipline is perfect, and it's always for your good.Need prayer or guidance? Our team would love to walk with you. Visit bannockburnchurch.com/prayer

Podcast Description:In this episode, I open my heart and speak from a place of deep reflection—because I've come to understand that I don't want the “perfect” love that looks good on the outside but lacks depth on the inside. I want a love that's perfect for me—one that feels safe, emotionally mature, spiritually aligned, and built on truth.This isn't about flawless people or fairy-tale relationships. It's about the kind of love that allows both people to be human—flawed but committed, imperfect but intentional. I talk about what it means to desire a sacred connection where both partners are capable of communicating through the hard times, standing in vulnerability, and choosing each other with consistency—not out of convenience, but out of alignment.I also share parts of my personal journey—how letting go of past connections, even ones filled with love, was necessary for growth. How sometimes we confuse chemistry for calling. And how the waiting season isn't a punishment, but a preparation. What may feel like silence is often God's way of clearing the path so the right kind of love can step in.This episode is for anyone who's ever questioned, “Is it me?” or felt like they were “too much” for the wrong people. You are not too much—you were just offering your love to people who weren't equipped to receive it.Love doesn't need to be broadcasted to be real. It needs to be felt, honored, and nurtured in quiet spaces where trust is built and authenticity is welcomed. If you're in a season of becoming, of healing, or simply waiting for the kind of connection that sees you and stays—this episode is for you.

This is recording 3 of 6 from a three-day meeting recorded on the 14th of May, 2000 in Coolangatta, Gold Coast, Australia. These materials were recently digitized and modernized from older formats after an extensive restoration process, and we are happy to offer them freely. The complete audio recordings from this meeting set will be made available later in the year in the subscriber-only podcast through Apple Podcast – https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-barry-long-podcast/id1709595005 and Spotify – https://open.spotify.com/show/34rcMFK6b4CcicY7JDxo9fIn this episode, Barry describes the journey from attachment to detachment. He explains that while the beauty of existence — in flowers, the sea, and human love — is real and wondrous, it is attachment to form that causes suffering. Living the spiritual life leads to living the life divine — a state that occurs when one ceases to live from the self, and a greater intelligence begins to live through one. As this unfolds, true union — free of possession — becomes possible, and one draws to oneself one's perfect mate. Barry says – "...your whole life is about bringing her or him into existence. Not someone outside you. Not a dream. But the true woman, the true man, the divine principle behind the body. And no one else can do it for you. You must live, love, and surrender enough for your true mate to be made real in your life."Barry goes on to describe the nature of the self: a band within the psyche where emotions and attachments dwell. He says that human suffering arises from being possessed by negative emotions rooted in the psychic realm, accumulated over generations. By acknowledging the good in life, loving purely without attachment, and surrendering the selfish will, individuals gradually illuminate their perfect body — a deeper, divine something within the psyche. The true purpose of life, Barry says, is to light up this perfect body through love and detachment, by undergoing the circumstances of one's life rightly — by suffering rightly. In time, a moment comes when suffering is no longer needed, when the self falls away and the psyche stands purified — and what is is the life divine.~Extracts:"The first sign of the true love coming into existence is that you never, ever want to be apart. You never want to go anywhere alone, unless you have to, of course. Always together. Always. But if you want to go and be alone — if you want to go down to the football club or have a night out with the girls — well, you've got some time to keep going until you bring this extraordinary principle of woman or man into existence in a body.""When you're next angry, do you see that you're being manipulated? This is what we are talking about — starting to live the spiritual life — when you can see that your anger, your resentment, your negativity is not love but possession. Until you desist from being identified with these emotions, until you are purified of them, you cannot truly love or bring the perfect love into existence."~Further reading:

Do you crave a love that fuses dazzling ideas, playful debate, and heartfelt connection? If so, you may be the Innovator LoveType (ENTP on the Myers‑Briggs personality test)—the quick‑witted explorer who thrives on possibility, originality, and meaningful partnerships. On our Love University podcast, we dove into the unique qualities and romantic requirements of the Innovator—one of the most dynamic love personality styles from my classic book, LoveTypes (lovetype.com). Here's what we discovered: As an Innovator, you sprint through life with a curious intellect and irrepressible sense of adventure, making you a stimulating and magnetic partner. You flourish in relationships that invite spirited discussions, blue‑sky brainstorming, and the freedom to experiment together. For you, love is a grand laboratory where two imaginative minds can hatch bold schemes, celebrate every breakthrough, and deepen trust through candid communication and shared laughter. From dreaming up great business ideas to pivoting when a project fizzles, you're always ready to dive head‑first with your partner into the next big venture as you build an empire together. Yet, in your rush to chase the next big idea, you may sometimes overlook subtle emotional signals—both yours and your partner's. Fortunately, that same inventive energy often makes you exceptionally encouraging, resourceful, and inspiring. Your knack for spotting hidden potential and reframing obstacles as opportunities (optimism) can be priceless in any partnership. If you're searching for true connection, consider these helpful pointers: Spark Mutual Curiosity: Invite your partner into your world of “what if?” by tossing out fresh concepts—designing an app, learning a language, or mapping a bold travel route—to build excitement and intellectual curiosity. • Listen Between the Lines: Your talent for lively debate is legendary, but pause now and then to tune in to the feelings beneath the words. Empathic listening reassures your partner that you value their heart, not just their ideas. • Prototype Together: You're at your best when you co‑create—whether it's launching a side hustle, remodeling a room, or planning a cause‑driven event. Tackling projects side by side knits your bond and channels your innovation into shared victories. • Ground Genius with Warmth: While your mind races ahead, remember the power of a steady emotional foundation. Offer clear affection, follow through on promises, and show your partner they're cherished beyond the brainstorm. Let your partner glimpse the softer layers beneath your confident banter. Although it's easy for Innovators to stay in the realm of theory, sharing your vulnerable emotions can transform bright sparks into lasting warmth. By pairing your inventive spirit with genuine sensitivity, you'll cultivate a love that's both electrifying and nurturing. Ultimately, your ideal relationship marries creativity with authentic closeness. When you share your visionary spark with someone who appreciates your individuality, you can build a life of exhilarating experiments, heartfelt camaraderie, and world‑rocking impact. With the right person by your side, you'll discover that true love is the ultimate innovation—culminating in a boundless source of mutual growth and joy.

Do you desire a love that blends strategic drive, bold vision, and heartfelt connection? If so, you may be the General LoveType (ENTJ on the Myers-Briggs personality test)—the decisive leader who thrives on challenges, big goals, and purposeful relationships. On our Love University podcast, we explored the unique qualities and romantic requirements of the General—one of the most powerful love personality styles from my classic LoveTypes (lovetype.com). Here's what we learned: As a General, you approach life with a confident intellect and proactive mindset, making you a strong and compelling partner. You excel in relationships that allow you to brainstorm creative solutions, set audacious objectives, and champion each other's dreams. For you, love is about forging a dynamic alliance, celebrating every success along the way, and cultivating mutual respect through honest communication and shared ambition. In relationships, you may sometimes get caught up in your drive to achieve, which can lead you to miss important emotional subtleties—both yours and your partner's. Yet, this same determination often makes you exceptionally supportive, visionary, and inspiring. Your capacity to see potential in both yourself and your loved one can be a priceless asset in any partnership. If you're looking for true connection, consider these helpful pointers: Leverage Your Leadership: Your gift for motivation and organization is one of your biggest strengths—don't hesitate to involve your partner in the strategic process. By crafting goals together, you build unity and show that you value their perspective. • Practice Mindful Empathy: You're direct and solution-focused, but remember to pause at times and genuinely hear how your partner feels. By showing care for their emotional experience, you foster greater trust and understanding. • Cultivate Shared Ambitions: You're at your best when you can collaborate on exciting projects or tackle new challenges as a team. Whether it's launching a business, planning an epic travel adventure, or investing in mutual learning, striving side by side fortifies your connection and your achievements. • Balance Drive with Warmth: While you flourish in goal-oriented environments, you also need a tender emotional bedrock. Be transparent in your affections, and let your partner know you value them as more than just a teammate in your pursuits. Remember to let your partner see your vulnerable side and share the feelings that often lie beneath your confident exterior. Although it's easy for Generals to stay focused on action and progress, opening your heart to emotional truths can lead to a deeper and more rewarding connection. By pairing your passion for achievement with authentic emotional presence, you'll create a love that's as powerful as it is nurturing. Ultimately, your ideal relationship is one that harmonizes ambition with genuine closeness. When you extend your leadership and vision to someone who appreciates your individuality, you can build a life of impactful collaborations, heartfelt companionship, and ongoing success. With the right person by your side, you'll discover that true love can be an extraordinary partnership—and a lasting source of mutual growth and happiness.

Do you desire a love that blends intellectual synergy, strategic vision, and heartfelt connection? If so, you may be the Expert LoveType (INTJ on the Myers-Briggs personality test)—the forward-thinking strategist who thrives on knowledge, self-improvement, and purposeful partnerships. On our Love University podcast, we explored the unique qualities of the Expert and how you can find your perfect love match. Here's what we learned: As an Expert, you approach life with a keen analytical mind and an unquenchable thirst for understanding, making you a focused and perceptive partner. You excel in relationships that allow you to delve into stimulating topics, share well-reasoned perspectives, and collaborate on future goals. For you, love is about building a shared vision, celebrating each milestone of the journey, and creating a deep bond through honest dialogue and mutual respect. In relationships, you may sometimes get absorbed in your own thoughts and overlook important emotional cues—both yours and your partner's. Yet, this same dedication to thinking things through often makes you exceptionally loyal, attentive, and supportive. Your ability to plan for the future, notice small details, and offer insightful observations can be a wonderful asset to any partnership. If you're looking for true connection, consider these helpful pointers: Honor Your Vision: Your ability to see the big picture and chart a course toward meaningful objectives is one of your greatest strengths—don't hesitate to share it. By inviting your partner into your planning process, you create a sense of teamwork and inspire mutual trust. Practice Empathetic Listening: You're naturally focused on logic and problem-solving, but remember to slow down and truly hear your partner's feelings. By showing genuine interest in their emotional world, you foster deeper understanding and respect. Nurture Shared Goals: You're at your best when you can pursue growth and learning together with your partner. Whether it's studying a topic of mutual interest or taking on a challenging project, dedicating time to common pursuits strengthens your intellectual and emotional bond. Balance Logic with Warmth: While you thrive on analysis, you also need a loving emotional foundation. Be open with your affections, and reassure your mate that you're emotionally available despite your more reserved nature. Remember to share your inner feelings and let your partner see the more vulnerable facets of who you are. Although it can be easy for Experts to remain in the realm of logic, acknowledging and communicating your emotional truths can lead to a more authentic and fulfilling connection. By pairing your visionary mindset with genuine warmth, you'll cultivate a love that's both stimulating and comforting. Ultimately, your ideal relationship is one that combines intellectual exploration with true emotional closeness. When you offer your insights to someone who values your individuality, you can build a life of deep conversations, purposeful collaboration, and meaningful partnership. With the right person by your side, you'll discover that true love can be a profound journey and sustaining source of lifelong growth.

You weren't created to parent through pressure, but for so many high-achieving women, that's exactly what it's become. In this episode, Mischelle dismantles the emotional conditioning that taught you to prove your love instead of trusting it. From childhood messages like “Be good” and “Don't talk back” to the guilt-ridden moments where you're physically present but emotionally gone. This conversation goes beneath the surface to expose what performance-based parenting is really costing you. You'll walk away with a new lens, deeper permission, and a quiet invitation to return to love-led connection without the performance.

Sunday Night in the Word - Perfect Love: The Heart of God 

In week 3 of our Abide series, we explore the depth of God's love and how it transforms our lives. 1 John 4:7-21 calls us to love one another because love comes from God, who first loved us. Through Jesus, we see the perfect expression of this love (Romans 3:23-25), and we are invited to abide in it. Looking at passages like John 3:35, John 5:19-20, and John 17:24, we see how love defines the relationship between the Father and the Son—and how we are called to reflect that love in our relationships. True love casts out fear, and those who abide in God's love are empowered to love others. Join us as we embrace the call to live in God's love and extend it to the world.For more information about Integrity Church, visit our website, http://liveintegritychurch.org Connect with us on social media throughout the week to stay up to date on events and things happening at Integrity!

Have you ever wrestled with fear—fear of judgment, fear of not being enough, or fear of where you stand with God? In this powerful message, Francis Chan confronts one of the greatest struggles in the church today—the insecurity that keeps us from fully embracing God's love. Why do so many believers live in doubt, questioning their salvation? And how can we break free from the lies that hold us captive? Francis unpacks these questions and reveals how God's perfect love casts out fear and how we can find true confidence in Him.

As we continue to follow the missions of Paul and Barnabas, Fr. Mike highlights the fickle nature of humanity and the futility of striving for the praise of men. He also encourages us to remain courageous in the tribulations we face, finding strength in other believers, and running toward the eternal and imperishable goal of salvation. Today's readings are Acts 14, 1 Corinthians 9-10, and Proverbs 28:7-9. For the complete reading plan, visit ascensionpress.com/bibleinayear.
