Be a Lover


Above all, keep fervent in your love for one another, because love covers a multitude of sins. (1 Peter 4:8)

I know you know this but as a reminder Jesus repeatedly stated our obligation to love God first and then others. Here we learn that where love for one another thrives, offenses are frequently overlooked and quickly forgotten. So the opposite is true as well. If you hold a grudge or there’s bitterness toward someone, you don’t love them. Hmmm. Sin is compounded by the lack of love. Be a lover.
