Think about the last time you put someone else’s needs before your own. Maybe it was sacrificing a night out with your friends, giving your younger sibling the last piece of dessert, listening to a friend when you would rather do something else, or simply being kind when you didn’t feel like it. Mark 12:31 reminds us of a powerful command:“Love your neighbor as yourself.” It’s not just about showing love to the people closest to you—it’s about extending that love to everyone around you, even those you don’t know well or those who are hard to love. Loving others isn’t always easy, but it’s the heart of what Jesus calls us to do.

Look for one way today to show love to someone around you, whether a friend, family member, or even a stranger. Let your actions reflect the love God has shown you.
