Abound in love

Read

¹¹ Now God himself and our Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ, direct our way unto you. ¹² And the Lord make you to increase and abound in love one toward another, and toward all men, even as we do toward you: ¹³ To the end he may stablish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all his saints.

Reflect

Paul prays that the Lord will make the believers 'increase and abound in love' toward each other and toward everyone. He links that growing love with hearts made steady for the coming of Jesus.

Pray

Lord, make my love grow toward the people around me, including the ones I find hard. Steady my heart as I wait for you. Amen.
