“Be under obligation to no one—the only obligation you have is to love one another. Whoever does this has obeyed the Law.” (Romans 13:8). This verse got me looking up the definition of obligation so here it is; something by which a person is bound or obliged to do certain things, and which arises out of a sense of duty or results from custom, law, etc. So, there it is. It’s pretty simple; we are not obligated to do anything but to love. It’s not always an easy thing; my first thought is my ex-wife. Um…that’s tough; but Jesus says it, then do it. So, I pray every day for her. Loving others isn’t easy but necessary to be closer to imitating Jesus. This life following Christ isn’t for the weak, but it is well worth it. God Loves Ya 😉
