Romans 13: 8-10
Brothers and sisters: Owe nothing to anyone, except to love one another; for the one who loves another has fulfilled the law. The commandments, You shall not commit adultery; you shall not kill; you shall not steal; you shall not covet, and whatever other commandment there may be, are summed up in this saying, namely, You shall love your neighbor as yourself. Love does no evil to the neighbor; hence, love is the fulfillment of the law.
Dawg's thought:
Today's prayer intention is for peace and comfort for those who live in the areas of the world torn by war.
I don't have much time today.
Something that struck me about today's reading, and about God, is that He calls us to simplicity. The simplicity of the words, "owe nothing to anyone, except to love one another," is so simple, yet so profound. Our lives are too complicated with our worries and our need to control. We are simply called to love by the One who is Love. Take care and God Bless.
