WE ARE HIS FRIENDS, HE HOLDS US IN HIGH ESTEEM

My commandment is this: love one another, just as I love you.

John 15:12 GNT

The Lord holds us in high regards.

He wants us to treat others the same way He would treat them if He is on earth today. “I do not call you servants any longer, because servants do not know what their master is doing. Instead, I call you friends, because I have told you everything I heard from my Father.”(John 15:15 GNT)

As Jesus' friends, we are to be loving, compassionate and merciful to others as Jesus is. We don't react to the ill treatments we received, as the world does, rather we respond with care and love, the same way Jesus would respond if He were to be on earth. For the world does not have the Holy Spirit, but we do.

To whom much is given much is expected.( Luke 12:48)

Jesus did not come to do His will but that of the Father. And it is the will of the Father for Him not to condemn the world, but to save it. In the same way, we also should live for Jesus and not for ourselves, we should not condemn others, but rather help them to be saved.

Remember, do not condemn yourself too, for we cannot do all these by our strength but through our union with Christ. “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” (Matthew 19:26 NIV)

WE PRAY FOR THE GRACE TO TREAT OTHERS THE WAY JESUS DOES TO THE GLORY OF GOD THE FATHER IN JESUS NAME AMEN!

THANK YOU JESUS!
