"This is My commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you." John 15v12
And this is not the love that says I love you today, and sorry - not anymore. Instead it is love that will say:
I will suffer long towards you, I will be kind to you, I will not envy you, I will not vaunt myself before you, I will not be puffed up towards you, I will not behave myself unseemly towards you, I will not seek my own before yours, I will not be easily provoked by you, I will think no evil towards you, I will not rejoice in iniquity in you but I will rejoice in the truth in you, I will bear all things for you, I will believe all things you say, I will hope all things for you, and I will endure all things from you. This my love for you, will never fail.
The interesting thing is that this love that Jesus said to have for one another, is not just for husband or wife ... it is for one another.
Have a blessed day.
Father Lord, You gave Jesus because You love us. Lord Jesus You gave Your life because You love us. Holy Spirit You are here with us out of love for us. Lord God Almighty, help us to learn from Your example and to love one another, even as You loved us, in Jesus name, amen.
