Red Flags, Respect, & RelationshipsMostra

Nobody likes rules, right? Well, here’s a little secret: Rules aren’t all bad! They can help us treat other people better. The word “commandment” used in this verse means “a divine rule.” In other words, a commandment like this is a rule from God. And what does God ask us to do? To love other people. God could have given us lots of rules to follow, but instead, God commanded us one thing that we can do: love others. That’s a rule that will make not just your life better, but the lives of those around you better, too!

Spend some time in prayer every day this week, asking God how you can love others well. Make a list of the ways you think doing that might improve your relationships overall.
