June 5 – John 15:12
John 15:12 Amp
This is My commandment, that you love one another [just] as I have loved you.
So this God we serve and demands that we obey Him, what does He command? Love each other. Love each other. In the same way that He loves us. In my Bible beside this verse, I wrote, “Show me how, Jesus.” That was thirty years ago, and I’m still asking. Laying down our own selfish, self-centered lives to love each other. To serve. To be all there, present with the person. I’ve met people who seem to make each person they’re with feel like he or she is the most important person to them. I’d love to have that. Hey, Anniebananie — you’re one of them! Love you bunches.
