Scriptures for Understanding the Circle of His Love

Understanding we are a part of the circle of God’s love opens up whole new possibilities for us. While I included a few scriptures in the free retreat theme, Circle of His Love, I knew there were many more verses that shared with us how our lives can be changed by knowing His love and sharing it with others. The ripples of love we share soon make waves of it throughout our homes and communities.
