The Race- Part 4

Matthew 22:39- And the second [is] like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.

     This verse is showing you step four- loving others.

     The Bible tells us that we should love everyone the same way we love ourselves. You should love even the people that you might not like that much. Matthew 5:44 says-

But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;

     Some people are just hard to love. But the Bible says you should love everyone. Not Just people you want to love, but people you want to love and even the people you don't want to love.

     Loving others is how you can witness to people too. Loving others can change peoples lives.

     We are not perfect but still, God loved us so much that he sent his son to die on the cross. Wait a minute! Let's pause here. Here is a perfect example why we should love others- God loves us and we're not perfect right? Then why do we not love others when they are just as deserving as we are?

     Don't make excuses that you don't have to love others because they are mean to you or don't seem like they deserve to be loved. Love your friends, love your teachers, love your parents, love everyone.

     God loves you so you should love others the same exact way the He loves you.
