9-10"I've loved you the way my Father has loved me. Make yourselves at home in my love. If you keep my commands, you'll remain intimately at home in my love. That's what I've done—kept my Father's commands and made myself at home in his love.
11-15"I've told you these things for a purpose: that my joy might be your joy, and your joy wholly mature. This is my command: Love one another the way I loved you. This is the very best way to love. Put your life on the line for your friends. You are my friends when you do the things I command you. I'm no longer calling you servants because servants don't understand what their master is thinking and planning. No, I've named you friends because I've let you in on everything I've heard from the Father.
More often than not we find ourselves unable to find the strength to love others much less those closest to us. He put HIS life on the line for us and in return he wants us to do one simple thing that is to love each other like he does. These days we may all be having financial woes but the one thing we can do to ease that pain is to SHARE LOVE.
