Love

Lady of Light

In Romans, Chapter 13:8-10, It says:

"Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law. For this Thou shalt not kill, thou shalt not steal, thou shalt not bear false witness, thou shalt not covet; and if there be any other commandment, it is briefly comprehended in this saying namely, Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. Love worketh no ill to his neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law."

It is interesting that love is the primary precept in fulfilling the law. It all reverts back to God's love for us because in 1 John 4:19, it says, "We love him because he first loved us."

I thank God for His love and the love He has put in my heart for others. I ask God to help me to live in love in all of my thoughts and behaviors. It is easy to become disconcerted at times, for none of us are perfect and we come across people who do not follow this precept. Remember that we don't have control over what others say and do, only over our own selves.

God bless you and have a great day!

Lady of Light
