What if you obeyed this one simple instruction?

"For the commandments...are summed up in this word: 'You shall love your neighbour as yourself.'"
(Romans 13:9)

We have all heard some version of this verse before...but what if we really started to obey what it says?

What if I approached every person today and asked myself: "How can I best show them love right now--what would make me feel loved?"

And what if I asked this not only of the ones who I know will love me in return but especially of those who will not?  What if I purposely sought to show them love?

How might love change them?

How might loving like this change ME?

To love like this is not for the faint of heart--but if you'd like to try along with me to love others better I'd ask you to consider to start simple:  "Who in your life do you see regularly but rarely (if ever) really show them any love?  How can you do something simple this week to show them love?"
