(John 3:16) As I’ve been studying about love this week, I would say that John 3:16 comes to mind as the very example of love we are to live by. The kind of “true love” that we all desire can really only come from one source, God. And He showed us that love by the amazing gift He gave us, His son on the cross to save us. I don’t think that any of us has the capacity to ever show that amount or kind of love. I do think that by loving God, and letting His love fill us, it is His love that can overflow and run out to others in our lives.

(John 17:1-26) The commentator describes this passage in John as really the true “Lord’s Prayer”.

He was lifting us up to God the Father, even while knowing how we would stumble in our walk with Him. The sticking point for me is how amazing God’s love is, to a people so undeserving of it.
