“Beloved, let us love one another, for love is of God; and everyone who loves is born of God and knows God. He who does not love does not know God, for God is love. In this the love of God was manifested toward us, that God has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.” [1]
“Love does no harm to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.” [2]
“Let all that you do be done with love.” [3]
“Heavenly Father, thank You for loving us so much! Help us to love others as You love them. Thank You for giving up Your Son unto death to pay in full our sin debt against You. Help us to love those who sin against us. Keep us from harming those around us. May Your great love for people be the starting point from which we do all that we do. In Jesus’ Name, I pray. Amen.”
