“As
I Have Loved You, So You Must
Love
One Another”
“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
13:33-35
Most people are
completely kind and trustworthy.
Jesus has made genuine
love possible. Jesus told His disciples that the world would know they were His
followers because of their love. Although some people may still hurt us,
because of Jesus there will always be those who, freely sharing His love, will unconditionally
support and care for us. Resting in His unfailing love, may we find healing,
community, and the courage to love others as He did.
Jesus
has made true love possible.
