Our love for each other will prove to the world that we are Jesus' disciples.
This core value is from John 13:35.
To better appreciate John 13:35, it would be good to read all of chapter 13.
If you are like me, you've heard this story many times, and the impact of what Jesus is doing barely resonates on us. Why is this?
Familiarity? A lack of understanding feet washing?
As you read:
Notice who the text says Jesus is
Notice what Jesus knows
Notice the power Jesus is able to wield.
Notice whose feet Jesus washes.
This story should move us deeply. This is a love like none other.
Finally, after allowing this love to amaze you, understand that you too are called to love just like this.
It is when we love like this that the world will know we are Jesus' disciples.
What does a love like this look like among us?
