The law of love.[ Matthew 22 v34-40 ]

I was struck with a reading from the Message in Romans 13v8ff/ Dont run up debts, except for the huge dept of love you owe each other. When you love others, you complete what the law has been after all along. The law code- dont sleep with another person,s spouse, dont take someone,s life,dont take what isnt yours,dont always be wanting what you dont have, and any other dont, you can think of- finally adds up to this. Love other people as well as you do yourself. You cant go wrong when you love others. When you add up everything in the law code, the sum total is love./ [Dear God help me to grasp more and more what it means to love, and help me to put it into practice in Jesus name Amen ]
