Read John 15:9-17
9 I love you just as the Father loves me;
remain in my love. 10 If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just
as I have obeyed 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 commandment is this: love one another, just as I love you. 13 The greatest love you can have for your friends is to give your life for them. 14 And you are my friends if you do what I command you. 15 I do not call you servants any longer, because servants do not know what their master is doing. Instead, I call you friends, because I have told you everything I heard from my Father. 16 You did not choose me; I chose you and appointed you to go and bear much fruit, the kind of fruit that endures. And so the Father will give you whatever you ask of him in my name. 17 This, then, is what I command you: love one another.

Think
Jesus commands us: "Love one another
as I have loved you." This is no small comand.
Pray
Lord I can not love without your help. Let your love work through me.
