DAILY DROP OF WATER

I’m sure you recall after the resurrection of the Lord, His asking Peter three times if he loved Him. The Greek language has several words for love – we, one. The first, Jesus asked, “Do you love me sacrificially?” Peter – “I love you as a friend.” Jesus asked again, “Do you love me sacrificially?” Peter – “I love you as a friend.” Jesus – “Do you love me as a friend?” Even this level of love questioned by the Lord troubled Peter, who answered, “You know I love at least that much!” Yet, still the Lord told Him, even with only that much love, do for Me as I have asked you these two times before, “Feed My sheep”. No one loves the Lord as they SHOULD, but we can still serve Him best we can with the love we do possess and all the while, seek to love Him more!

    Amen; perhaps the best way we can start showing our love for Christ is by simply keeping His commandments, until our keeping turns into something far more than just simple obedience, and we strive not just to meet, but EXCEED His expectations. Rejoicing in Christ, Dr. Wirth
