When we love someone, we tend to do special things for them. Whether it is an unusual spontaneous act of kindness or a well-planned demonstration of our feelings, we spare no expense and give our greatest effort for the ones who are closest to us.
Philippians 2:1-3 says, “Is there any encouragement from belonging to Christ? Any comfort from his love? Any fellowship together in the Spirit? Are your hearts tender and sympathetic? Then make me truly happy by agreeing wholeheartedly with each other, loving one another, working together with one heart and purpose.” Those who have placed their faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord become the children of God and the objects of His eternal love. We become the bride of Christ while also obtaining the inheritance of Jesus. Since we have encouragement in Christ, comfort in His love, fellowship with one another, and tender hearts through Christ, let us be truly united in love for one another. Let us spare no expense and withhold no effort in demonstrating our love for one another.
