KEY SCRIPTURE: Matthew 19:19 “Honor thy father and thy mother: and thou shall love your neighbor as thyself”.

Our Lord Jesus told His disciples to love their neighbours as themselves. He taught that they must love without partiality, This is what makes a ma n perfect Mat 5:48. Matt 5 :45: Love is the proper language of creation. Creation freely gives to sustain itself. That is the language of love, for it   freely gives off its best. One may give without love, but you cannot love without giving.

The sun gives its best rays without expecting anything from the rest of creation. The plants receive the sunshine and reciprocally give off oxygen and water into the atmosphere. It gives and gives, and gives and gives out without expecting anything in return. We live by love, and death lays its cold hands-on men when our hearts grow cold with selfishness and hatred.

When love is taken out of creation, life will be extinct. Selfishness which is possessiveness, or an attitude to keep and never to share, or give out to support others, is poison to an individual’s heart, and an evil weapon of mass destruction. Hate selfishness, and kick it out of your life and you will stop its menace in your homes and surroundings.

Show me a man or woman of love, and I have found a mature person. Show me a wife or husband who is selfish, and I would reveal to you a home of great pain and sorrow. Love is beauty in the heart.

Now look at the portrait of love from the New Living Translation of 1st Corinthians 13:4 Love is patient and kind. Longsuffering is a sense of accommodating certain adverse tendencies from others without retaliation. Kindness is a Liberal heart that seeks to bless, lift, or support others.

We see that in love, you take the mistakes of others, yet you are ready to share all good things with these same people without bearing any grudges or ill motives. Love indeed is medicine. A home of love raises, responsible God-fearing children, who also affect their communities with God’s power LET LOVE LEAD and love

 CONFESSION

I am a lover of all persons. I have been liberated by the love of Jesus so I likewise love all men. I am able to bear with all the mistakes of my neighbours and yet without the slightest sense of being taken advantage of.

THOUGHT: MAKE THIS WORLD A BETTER PLACE BY SHINNING YOUR LOVE ROUND
