Romans 13:8 -- On Law and Love

"Owe no man any thing, but to love one another: for he that loveth another hath fulfilled the law." Romans 13:8


This is an interesting idea, first that we shouldn't go into debt, but also the idea of owing other people love. I like that idea. Even when we have a hard time respecting or obeying someone, it is good that love is required since so many scriptures talk about how important it is.

Today, let's remember love, and if obligation and God's law are the motivator for us, let's start there. We owe other people love--a basic human need, ours to provide, even in the most difficult circumstances. Let's fulfil our obligations, and also pray and ask Heavenly Father for help in being filled with his love so we aren't just acting on obligation, but also feel it down to our toes.
