“Love One Another”

When he was gone, Jesus said, “Now the Son of Man is glorified and God is glorified in him. If God is glorified in him, God will glorify the Son in himself, and will glorify him at once.

“My children, I will be with you only a little longer. You will look for me, and just as I told the Jews, so I tell you now: Where I am going, you cannot come.

“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another. By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another.”

John 13:31-35

When something happens in our family, and we let the world know that, prepare to be surprised at how many people have loving concerns for you and your family. We are Christians, we care about each other.

At the very core, this is how the body is supposed to work. Loving concern for our brothers and sisters in Christ becomes the evidence that we have experienced His love.

When you receive Christlike love, tell others, and love others. It is a way of praising Him.

The height of our love for God is indicated by the depth of our love for one another.
