6th Sunday of Easter
“This is my commandment: love one another as I love
you. No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s
life for one’s friends” – JOHN 15:12-13
Do you love Jesus? Do you consider Him your friend? Jesus says that if we love Him we would be willing to of-fer whatever we have to Him, not because we want praise and glory, but simply because we love Him. Does your giving seem mechanical out of obligation or do you share freely out of love?
