This year, Good Friday and Easter fall in March, a chance to recall the greatest love the world was ever shown, Jesus, on the cross for us!
Just before he died, Jesus said this: " The greatest love is shown when a person lays down his life for his friends, and you are my friends if you do the things that I command." (John 15:13,14) And what did he command? To love one another!
Let's love like that! Let's be as selfless and as serving as we can be! When we consider all He did for us, does for us, and sacrificed for us, it's not too much to ask.
Seems like last month we were talking about love, too. Hmmmm... Maybe there's a theme here...
Remember, God is love. May he fill you with himself this month, as we celebrate his most amazing love!
