Faith Leads to Holy Living
Live in the light of God (Isaiah 2:5)
Live Holy Lives
Romans 13:8-10 Amplified Bible
8 [ a]Owe nothing to anyone except to [ b]love and seek the best for one another; for he who [unselfishly] loves his neighbor has fulfilled the [essence of the] law [relating to one’s fellowman]. 9 The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery, you shall not murder, you shall not steal, you shall not covet,” and any other commandment are summed up in this statement: “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.” 10 Love does no wrong to a neighbor [it never hurts anyone]. Therefore [unselfish] love is the fulfillment of the Law.
For Reflection
All we need is LOVE! Well, yes, of course. But the love about which we speak is divine, a love that eludes those who practice a self-serving superficial love. This unique love is driven by the desire of one to give of him/her self with our expecting a return, humble self-sacrificial giving of one's self for the betterment of another.
Pray
Pray so that you may discover the power to reject carnal impulses for spiritual beneficence.
