A Love Reminder

[burien1]

In the world we are living in, I need this reminder. And this is better than any Valentine's present.

Matthew 22:37-39
37 Jesus said unto him,Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
38 This is the first and great commandment.


39 And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.



Matthew 5:43-48
43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’

44 But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

45 that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous.

46 If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that?

47 And if you greet only your own people, what are you doing more than others? Do not even pagans do that?

48 Be perfect, therefore, as your heavenly Father is perfect.


John 13:34-35
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.


Love you, Brothers and Sisters !

Brenda, it does not surprise me in the least that YOU would be the person to create this thread. I believe you are one of the most loving people on this board.

About your brother, my belated condolences, Schnookums.

We love, because He first loved us. 1John 4:19

And so true in my case.



No SueAnn, I'm not. I do battle everyday with my flesh over this, as I'm sure a lot of us do.






These aren't my words, Loop. They belong to all of us.
