John 13:34-35
"A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another; as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another."
Encouraging Words...
Today is Great and Holy Friday (Good Friday) in the Eastern Orthodox Church. There are many readings in the scriptures for the day and these verses are in the first passage. What a special way to kick off the day that we observe to remember the passion of Christ...teaching us to love others as Christ has loved us. Is this not one of the main reasons that Christ came to earth as a man and walked the path to the cross...because of His love for His creation. He has shown us how to love and has given us a Helper to be able to love this way ourselves.
