Messiness in Our Relationships ~ Jeff Key

“A new command I give you:  Love one another as I have loved you, so you must love one another.”  ~ John 13:35

Follow the command of Jesus and relationships are easy. I think we all struggle with that though because we sometimes put conditions on our love before we give it. We use our love as a bargaining chip with friends and family which leads not to healthy but strained relationships. If however, no matter what we face we can use the love God has for us and remember that his love is unconditional we can follow his command to love others as ourselves. We should remember to be spreaders of love to all as he commands us.

Dear God, Help us live into your command to love one another as You have loved us. Your command is to love one another without conditions. Let us put that love into action as we look for ways to help each other find our way through these trying times together. Amen.
