A New Command . . .

It is written in John 13:34-35
"A new command I give you: Love one another.
As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
By this all men will know that you are my disciples,
if you love one another."

In a study I'm working on (actually it's an incredible study called The Truth Project) the teacher says . . .
"If God mentions something once, you should write it down.
If He mentions it twice, you should sit up and take notice.
If He mentions it a third time, maybe we should fall to our knees and listen."

LOVE ONE ANOTHER - 3 TIMES IN 2 CONSECUTIVE VERSES!!!

I'm not sure about you but I'm thinking that the chances are pretty good that Christ considers this to be an important subject!!

Who has Christ brought into your life that is easy to love? Go ahead, smile as you meditate for a moment. Isn't it wonderful that the Lord is so generous in allowing us the ability to recall such pleasures?
Now ask yourself who Christ has brought into your life that is a challenge to love. Think about it . . . wouldn't life be much more simple if only everyone would allow the love of Christ to enter their hearts and minds. In Christ we are a new creations. We can love AND be loved. The two meet in perfect harmony.

The bible talks about the fullness of Christ and the beauty of Christ. The joy and pleasures and treasures of Christ. When every part of my being is consumed by Him, I can do nothing but weep joyously. It is beyond description - beyond explanation - beyond reason.

I pray, through the powerful name of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, that the fullness of Christ would consume all those who are challenged to love and be loved.
How Great Is Our God!!!!!! Hallelujah!
Amen and Amen
