But above all these things put on love, which is the bond of perfection. Colossians 3:14

You know of someone who everyone draws to? It's like they are a magnet, bringing people in around them....like dogs running to the food bowl. What is it about them that brings them in? Most likely it's their character, their attitude and how they make others feel. I have known only a few people in my life that when they come in a room, everyone wants to be near them. 

Jesus Christ was that way. People were drawn to Him because of the love He showed the crowds. He took time to be with them, instructing and healing. When someone feels loved by another, they are drawn to that person. Love is a powerful emotion, it's like super glue that holds two things together.

What kind of person are you? Do you find people drawn to you, or tend to shy away? How is your attitude? Do you make time for others? As Children of God, we are to resemble Christ in our life. Others should be drawn to us because of our Christ like character. 

Check yourself and ask God to make you more like Him. Ask Him to help transform those "rough" edges in your life to smooth them out. As your attitude and character changes, you'll find more people drawn to you because the love and concern you show them. Put on love today, the world needs to see the love of Christ. 
God bless.
