“AFFECTIONATE LOVE!”
Romans 12:10
“Be kindly affectionate to one another with brotherly love, in honor giving preference to one another.”
Across the years I have counseled hundreds of individuals and couples. (That may not be due to my popularity as much as my age -- I have been around a long time!) Regardless, I have met very bitter people who seemed devoid of kindly affection. In fact, they have not been kind at all.
Yesterday I used Romans 12:9 to direct our thoughts. Today and tomorrow I will continue an examination of this passage. Romans 12:9-12 is filled with descriptions of what love should be. I know 1st Corinthians 13 is frequently referred to as the Bible's "love" chapter, but in a way, I think the Roman's passage is equally descriptive.
We show our true Christian love by being kind to each other. Being kind means that we devote ourselves to discovering what the other person needs and then doing our best to help them fulfill their needs. It brings us back to the process of thinking of others more than ourselves.
May God richly bless you as you bless others by your words and actions!
