Remain in Love
My dear son,
Remain in the love with which your Father loves Jesus and Jesus loves you. I want you to receive that love gladly and live within it today, with room to enjoy what has been given.
Follow Jesus' teaching by loving one another. Give time to someone close by, help faithfully where help is needed, and pass along the care you have received. May obedience become a joyful answer to love.
I want your joy to grow full within my love. Listen sincerely to one person's story today, and offer kindness. Your Father looks with happiness on a day in which you receive love and share it.
With all my love,
Your Father
John 15:9–12
WEB9Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love.
10If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, even as I have kept my Father’s commandments and remain in his love.
11I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full.
12“This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.
A short reflection
Jesus tells his disciples to remain in his love by keeping his commandments and commands them to love one another as he has loved them.
