February 15, 2008: Games Night
Posted On Saturday, February 16, 2008 at 2/16/2008 07:06:00 PMDue to lack of planning—David takes the blame for that—we had another games night. However, this time, David did some work ahead of time, and came up with some games to play.
Mostly, we played Whose Line is it Anyway. Some people didn’t want to take part, but those who did really enjoyed themselves. Near the end of the night there was talk of playing Boneyard, but it never came to fruition.
John’s devotion was about love. He compared God’s love for us with our love for each other; when two people have been dating for a short period of time, and are still in the “puppy love” phase of their relationship, and one says, “I love you,” to the other, it’s much different from when God says it to us. When one of those people says it, that person doesn’t really know the other person. The person’s faults, for example. Whereas when God says it to us, there is nothing intrinsic in us for Him to love—yet He loves us anyway. Not because of who we are, but because of who He is.
