“As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. 12 My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you.”
John 15:9-12 NIV
Lord Jesus, You have shown us what true humility looks like. You gave up so much to save us. Thank You! Help us to replace our pride with humility and help us to replace our self-centeredness with a desire to love and serve one another. Change the way we think, our actions and our behavior to a way that shows Your love to others and guides us to live our lives in a way that honors You. In Your name we pray, Amen.
“You, my brothers and sisters, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh[a]; rather, serve one another humbly in love. 14 For the entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”[b] 15 If you bite and devour each other, watch out or you will be destroyed by each other.”
Galatians 5:13-15 NIV
