LOVING OTHERS

LEVITICUS 19:18 (NLT)
I am the LORD, and I command you to love others as much as you love yourself.

HEBREWS 13:1-2 (CEB)
Keep loving each other like family. Don’t neglect to open up your homes to guests, because by doing this some have been hosts to angels without knowing it.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Love others in practical ways.

PRAYER
Thank you, God, for your eternal love of us. I confess that I have been less than successful in passing that love onto my neighbors. Loving others can be uncomfortable and disruptive of all the other things I love. Show me what I need to let go of so that I can love as Jesus loves. I'm going to love others with the same focus and energy that I naturally pour into myself. Amen.
