Love must be sincere. Hate what is evil; cling to what is good. Be devoted to one another in love. Honor one another above yourselves. Romans 12: 9-10
As a nursing supervisor, I had so much responsibility. In my course of tenor, I had so many opportunities to honor and prefer others above myself. How do you prefer others? I think the commandment to love your neighbor as yourself helps us to prefer others above ourselves. We love God because He first loved us! What are the ways we show the preference? We pray for one another. We serve if we have the opportunity. Several ways I served my nurses was to work as hard as they did, I prayed for them, and I showed my respect.
Father God, help me to prefer others and be devoted to serving. You are a God that loves us and teaches us that love must be sincere. I ask that I hate what is evil and cling to what is good. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
Who is God asking you to love that may be difficult?
