“I have loved you even as the Father has loved me. Remain in my love.” John 15:9
Life is much easier when we find a bunch of substandard people to hang out with. It helps us feel good about ourselves. Nothing makes us appear to be great than to hang around people who aren't. God sent Jesus to be the standard so that we don't fall into the trap of thinking we have already arrived and that we have nothing to strive for.
Lord, help me to love how YOU love and not simply better than those around me love.
