"A new commandment I give unto you that you love one another; as I have loved you."
- John 13:34
 
Someone has said that love is an action, not a passion. This is borne out of Christian experience. For instance, we may say we love our wife, or husband, our sweetheart, or our neighbor, but if that love is indeed real, our actions will demonstrate it.
 
I remember reading in one of C. S. Lewis books, "Do not waste your time bothering whether you love your neighbor; act as if your did. As soon as we do this, we find one of the great secrets. When you are behaving as if you loved someone, you  will presently come to love him. If you injure someone you dislike, you will find yourself . . .

If you do him a good turn, you will find yourself disliking him less."
 
Christian friends, loving is doing. Jesus demonstrated that when He died for us. Is there someone to whom you should show love today?
 
O I want to serve like Jesus-
Willingly He came from heaven above;
On the earth He lived for others,
Spent His life in kindly deeds of love.
 
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY - He who loves much, does much.
