Scripture Sunday

Print

Jesus said, "My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you."
~ John 15.12

"Let us love one another, for love comes from God.  Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.  Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love."
~ 1 John 4.7-8

"We love because God first loved us."
1 John 4.19

"Live a life of love, just as Christ loved us and gave himself up for us as a fragrant offering and  sacrifice to God."
~ Ephesians 5.2


Dear Father,

Help me to love everyone you have placed in my sphere of influence.

Amen.

Blessings,
Ellen

  4. I'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.
