ANGLICAN COMMUNION DEVOTIONAL OUTLINE FOR 12TH JUNE 2024.
Today we commemorate St. Barnabas, the Apostle who demonstrated the love of Christ by welcoming Saul of Tarsus (Paul) into the Church against all odds (Acts 9: 27-29). In our text today, Jesus Christ greatly emphasised the commandment of loving one another which He gave to His disciples. He had told them to love one another as He had loved them (John 15: 12). He also demonstrated this great love by laying down His life for His followers. This commandment stands till eternity because love is the greatest of all commandments.
Beloved, it is through love that people will see the true picture and person of Jesus in us as His followers. Christianity without love becomes a burden and legislative. The true character of love is explained in 1 Corinthians 13. Again, perfect love casts out fear (1 John 4: 18). We are therefore enjoined to demonstrate the characteristics of love in our daily Christian living. Showing godly (agape) love has its own risks, but perfect love casts out fear; it focuses more on the joy it brings. If you truly love others, many things that appear irritating or annoying in their lives will become inconsequential to you. Love brings peace of mind.
PRAYER: Heavenly Father, help me to show Your love in all I do for the rest of my life.
