ReplyDeleteThank you for reminding us of this scripture. It's amazing how God can change our heart to love someone... especially with this deep, sincere, love, as Christ has loved.
ReplyDeleteJesus said the most important command is to love God, love people! Happy WFW!
ReplyDeleteI'm linking up with Rebecca today, too... thank you for these scriptures. Sometimes it is easy to love, and sometimes not so easy... I have to rely on the scripture when it's NOT so easy.
