John 15:11-12 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete. My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. ----Jesus, with more to do in His three years of active ministry than Ill have in a lifetime, focused on His main assignment — to love people. Sometimes that meant teaching them. Or serving them. Yet other times it meant just hanging out. Enjoying dinner with friends. Celebrating at a wedding party. Welcoming children. These fun times werent empty of significance. Rather they were filled with value as Jesus showed love in a different way. This is a truth I need to apply to my life more often. My idea of loving others is often shown by serving them. But some people feel loved when I simply spend time with them. And for some, that time needs to be a little less task-oriented and a lot more laughter-filled. Lord, my prayer today is that you give me YOUR eyes when it comes to interacting with people in my life. Give me the words to say when they need comfort, the tears to cry when someone needs sympathy, the heart to love those that have no one to love them. Thank you for loving me and teaching me every day to be more like You!-----
