Today's Devotion:
"Without Hypocrisy"
HI!
Once, the two kids had left for school,
Ann and I started cleaning up the house
before we headed to work.
I knelt down to tie the garbage bag; but
a broken glass cut through my pant leg
and got my knee.
Ann was so concerned, she came over
and knelt down beside me.
But her knee was not protected by a
pant leg!
It really cut her. We had to go to the ER
and get stitches.
_______SCRIPTURE____________
Rom 12:9-10
9 Let love be without dissimulation.
Abhor that which is evil; cleave to that
which is good.
10 Be kindly affectioned one to another
with brotherly love; in honour preferring
one another;
(KJV)
_______THOUGHT______________
Those words "without dissimulation" mean
without hypocrisy; not just a showing of
love; but expressing genuine love.
That's what Ann showed for me...unfeigned
love.
That kind of love cannot come FROM you
unless it is IN you!
That kind of love is the same as when
Jesus spoke about in Mark 12:29-31.
"And Jesus answered him, The first of all
the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The
Lord our God is one Lord:
30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with
all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all
thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the
first commandment.
31 And the second is like, namely this, Thou
shalt love thy neighbour as thyself. There is
none other commandment greater than these."
That second commandment is to love OTHERS
as we love OURSELVES!
It means to love with dignity, purity and
exemplifying usefulness.
And, in John 13:35, Jesus said, "By THIS
shall all men know that ye are my disciples,
if ye have love one to another."
It's not physical, or sensual; it is SPIRITUAL.
Because it exudes from the INSIDE OUT!
Are YOU showing God's love to OTHERS?
Love ya!
