Remain in love
John 15:9–12 · King James Version
9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.Read the full chapter →
Reflect
Jesus joins abiding in his love with keeping his command to love one another. Christian love is received before it is practiced, then becomes concrete in relationship.
Pray
Jesus, keep me in your love and teach me to give what I have received. Make my care patient and concrete. Amen.
