John 15:12 - It's More About Love.

John 15:12 (NKJV) This is My commandment, 
that you love one another as I have loved you.  

COMMENTARY PEARL

   Some of your greatest treasures live in 
your house; they share your name. You tend to 
think of them as the ones who forget to clean the 
dishes or pick up their laundry. But the truth? 
They are masterpieces crafted by the hand of 
God. 
   Your treasures include a host of 
functional folk as well. They check out your groceries, 
grade your quizzes, or take your blood pressure. 
They wear police uniforms and drive carpools and 
fix your computer. They compose a collage of 
humanity, blending in more than standing out. 
   All they need is someone committed to 
bringing the best out of them. All they need is 
someone who is willing to take on the greatest of 
the 'one another" commands: 'Love one another" 
(1 John 4:11 NKJV). 
   Remember, God invites us to find 
happiness through the back door. Most people seek joy 
through the front door. Buy it, wear it, marry it, 
or win it. The lesser-used back door embraces 
Gods wisdom: it's less about getting, more about 
giving, less about being loved, and more about 
loving others. [You Can Count On God by Max 
Lucado]
