Verse of the Day
A verse from an earlier day, with its reflection and prayer.
Love as He loved
“This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.”
Today's insight
Jesus does not offer this as a gentle suggestion or an optional ideal; He calls it "my commandment." The standard He sets is striking: you are called to "love one another, as I have loved you." Loving others begins not with your own limited strength, but by remembering the generous, self-giving love you have already received from Him.
Reflect
Who in your life today needs to experience the same patient, unselfish love that Christ has shown to you?
Prayer
Lord, thank You for the deep love You have shown me. Help me to lay down my pride and love those around me with the very same grace today. Amen.
