Letter From the Editor
Hello, Purpose Driven Women, This month many of us focus on love because February resonates with Valentine's Day. While that is a day put aside for couples, I say let's use it as a time to talk about God's love, because without His love or his examples of love we wouldn't know how great that word LOVE is. LOVE is a powerful word. The Bible says, "For God so loved the world", "Love your neighbor as yourself," "but the greatest of these is love," "Love is patient". As you live our lives for the rest of this month, focus on love, not just this month but all year. Love is how we win souls. You cannot buy love, earn love, or win love; love is unconditional, meaning no matter what you do, wrong or right; God loves you, and the people who love you put no conditions on it. I pray every one of you experiences love, every day. 2020 focused on too much hate, so let's make 2021 about love and watch how things will change. Let's see how our nation, our world, our communities, our cities, our homes can become better when we focus on loving those around us, just like Jesus loves you.
Always remember to Expect It, Believe It, Receive It! Carmelita Mcroy Editor in Chief
