Loving Together

     Jesus summed up how we should live:

Jesus replied, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it. Love your neighbor as yourself.” Matthew 22:37-39

    We can only love the Lord with all of our heart, soul and mind if we understand His unfailing, never-ending, sacrificial, unconditional love for us. Allow that love to wash over you today until it fills you entirely. God loves you. He died for you. He wants to change your life with that love. Thank Him. Praise Him. Love Him back and that love will begin to flow unto others. And as we love the unlovable, they will recognize the One who sent us.

Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.  1 John 4:7

Jesus tells us:

By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another. John 13:35

Lord,

Thank You for the love you first gave us. Only when we understand how much we are loved can we love others. Jesus shows us how to do it and in His name we pray.

Amen
