HOW ABOUT YOU…

Have you ever wanted something so bad, you didn’t care if you hurt someone else to get it?

 

CHECK THIS OUT…

In John 13:35, Jesus says, “By this all men will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another."

 

Jesus doesn’t care if we’re seen by the world as a success or as a failure as long as we follow His word and love one another. That’s what will draw others to Him—seeing Him in us.

 

If we put material things, accomplishments, and earthly desires before our commitment to love others, the world may have a hard time telling that we’re Christians. And, we’ll be a lot unhappier, too.
