Love One Another
This Scripture admonishes us to three kinds of love: kindly affection, brotherly love, and giving preference.
“Kindly affection” is drawn from the root word for friend. It implies the cherishing of one’s natural relatives. “Brotherly love” suggests that we are to love the brethren—our brothers and sisters in Christ. “Giving preference” requires us to show deference to others. The literal meaning of this word is “to lead the way for others.”
Are we doing these things in our lives? Are we living in kindly affection by loving our relatives, honoring our parents, and caring for our families? Are we loving the brethren, or are we constantly criticizing and backbiting? Are we giving preference to those around us? Are we living our lives in such a way that others will come to find Jesus as their Savior and follow Him?
Let us ask the Lord to cause those three areas of love to blossom and grow in our lives as we reach out to our families, the body of Christ, and the world.
