Love is Commanded

The Good News Today Is...This is my commandment that you love one another that your joy may be free. That is an song a learned in Sunday School years and years and years ago. We used to line up and sing it while marching around the Sunday School room. I've never forgotten it and I've taught to my children and countless other children that I have taught Sunday School to. It's not a song for wimps....loving one another is not always easy - but it is always commanded. Love one another as I have love you. Jesus proclaimed these words on one of His last days on earth. Again, a commandment not for wimps. Loving one another the way Jesus loves us, through all the warts, sins and ugliness is a tough commandment. This is the way we all need to strive to live - this is what will heal our broken world. May the love of God be in you - may you share it with others today.
