Scripture lesson: John 15:12-16 The Charge from Jesus
Time to reflect: Jesus is giving his disciples their “marching orders” just before he faces death. Notice that the chief expectation is “love” -- sacrificial care and concern for others.
Moving through the day: Think about this passage carefully, phrase at a time, applying it to yourself.
My command is this: Love each other as I have loved you. Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. You are my friends if you do what I command. I no longer call you servants, because a servant does not know his master's business. Instead, I have called you friends, for everything that I learned from my Father I have made known to you. You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will last. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask in my name.
