Another Love Chapter

Another Love Chapter

“Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality.”- Romans 12:9-13 NIV

Well maybe not quite an entire chapter, but a love passage nonetheless.

Most of us know 1 Corinthians 13 as “The Love Chapter” in which it explains what all love is and is not. 

However, there is another love group of verses found in Romans 12. If 1 Corinthians 13 tells what all love is and is not, Romans 12is “Love In Action” 

The action steps:

  • Love must be sincere

  • Hate what is evil

  • Cling to what is good

  • Be devoted to one another in brotherly love

  • Honor one another above yourselves

  • Never be lacking in zeal

  • Keep your spiritual fervor

  • Serve the Lord

  • Be joyful in hope

  • Patient in affliction

  • Faithful in prayer

  • Share with God’s people who are in need

  • Practice hospitality

All that in just 5 verses. And the list can continue through the end of this other love chapter.

A chapter depicting “Love in Action”... an image of all that Jesus is.

May we take on the mantra of love and shine for the world to see... just like Jesus.

Just like He calls us to be

Keep the Faith... Carpe Diem
