Let no debt remain outstanding, except the continuing debt to love one another, for whoever loves others has fulfilled the law.

(Romans 13:8)

Pray

Dear God,

You have called us to love one another, for love is the fulfillment of the law. Help me to truly understand and embrace this commandment in my heart. Grant me the capacity to love others without reservation, to extend grace and forgiveness, and to truly see and value the inherent worth and dignity of every person I encounter. Help me to be patient, kind, and compassionate, and to always seek the welfare and good of others.

In my own human frailty, I know there are times when I fail in this commandment. Forgive me for the times when I have harbored bitterness or withheld love from others. Give me the courage and strength to love even those who may be difficult for me to love, and to embody the selfless love that Christ demonstrated for us all. May my life be a living example of the love that You have called me to show to others.

In Jesus’ name, Amen.
