Jesus said, "This is My commandment : love one another as I have loved you…… I commissioned you to go out and bear fruit . What I command you is to love one another"
John 15: 8,12, 17

If you live in Me and I in you cannot but love one another, for it is I who live in you and in those who love you, and it is I who am the love with which you love those around you. So the depth and vitality of your love for others reflect your love for Me and is a witness to it. And in like manner your Heavenly Father loves and is loved in you and Our Holy Spirit surrounds and searches out the dark places in heart and home and community to illuminate with love and joy.

The love which you seek and allow to grow in you will of itself bear fruit . Increasingly the power of loving purpose will accomplish all that is to be done, binding al together in meaningful relationship and deep joy all who are faithful to it.

Love, then, with all your heart and mind, for this is the purpose and meaning and end of all life.
