Week 1 Chesed – Love and kindness:

Omer counting day 7.

Dignity – Love (the dignity/majesty side of love) Malchut – Chesed in Hebrew.

The environment of true love in people’s lives, builds up a desire to maintain a position of dignity, royalty and majesty for the sake of presenting a good name for themselves and for those they love.

But in the presence of competition, false judgement, backbiting and self-seeking, shame is not lacking.

Ask yourself:

Is my love caring, giving and sacrificial towards the one’s that I love or am I always negative, busy and self centred?

Because every action that brings shame, from a student, a child or a wife, is an expression of a selfish leader, teacher or husband.

But every action that brings honour to someone’s name is a reflection of his giving, caring and sacrificial love.

Exercise of the day:

Find a ministry that has given you spiritual food and teachings into your life and give an offering as a symbol of appreciation.
