A Message Repeated

 

“We should love one another.”

—1 John 3:11b

Whenever someone tells us the same message over and over it usually means one of two things. Either the person repeating the message has a mental impairment, so he or she can’t remember what was said, or the message is a really important one.

In the case of the message regarding love, it is obviously the latter. The often-repeated message of love in the Bible is really important.

The Apostle John confirms this in 1 John 3:11:

For this is the message you heard from the beginning: We should love one another.

John states that we have heard the message of love from the beginning. It is a message repeated over and over because it’s really important that we understand how crucial love is in the life of a believer.

For those times we have not acted or spoken lovingly, we need to confess and repent. When faced with new challenges or new opportunities, we need to act and speak with love.

Let us begin this new day with love in our hearts and on our minds. Let’s prove to God that we’ve received His message.
