Love Your Neighbor Introduction:
What does it really mean to love your neighbor?
This is accomplished with a proper state of mind as we approach our daily life in His service and develop our spiritual identity and character.
You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your strength, and with all your mind; and your neighbor as yourself. Luke 10:27.
Of course it takes a lawyer of Christ’s time to deliver a question that he figures may challenge our Savior.
Obey the LORD your God by observing his commandments and decrees that are written in this book of the law. Deut. 30:10.
May you be made strong with all the strength that comes from His glorious power, and may you be prepared to endure everything with patience, while joyfully giving thanks to the Father. Col. 1:11.
Lord, we hear your word with gladness
Edith Margaret Clarkson
Lord, we hear your word with gladness: you have
spoken—we rejoice:
words of love and life and freedom—help us make
their truth our choice!
Now in holy celebration for your Word we worship
you;
spoken, written, known in Jesus, ours today to
prove anew.
Love Your Neighbor Scripture:
The LORD will again take delight in prospering you, just as he delighted in prospering your ancestors. Deut. 30:9.
To you, O LORD, I lift up my soul. Ps. 25:1.
We have not ceased praying for you and asking that you may be filled with the knowledge of God’s will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding, Col. 1:9.
“Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?” Luke 10:25.
Prayer:
Dear Lord God of justice,
your word is light and truth.
Let your face shine on us to restore us,
that we may walk in your way,
seeking justice and doing good. Amen.
Teach Me Thy Way O Lord
Benjamin Mansell Ramsey (1919).
Teach me Your way, O Lord, teach me Your way!
Your guiding grace afford, teach me Your way!
Help me to walk aright, more by faith, less by sight;
lead me with heavenly light, teach me Your way!
When I am sad at heart, teach me Your way!
When earthly joys depart, teach me Your way!
Prayer:
Friends in Christ,
God invites us to hold the needs of our sisters and brothers
as dear to us as our own needs.
Loving our neighbors as ourselves,
we offer our thanksgivings and our petitions
on behalf of the church and the world.
Prayers of the People.
Hear our prayers, God of power,
and through the ministry of your Son
free us from the grip of the tomb,
that we may desire you as the fullness of life
and proclaim your saving deeds to all the world. Amen.
Living for Jesus a Life that is True
Thomas Chisholm (1917).
Living for Jesus, a life that is true,
Striving to please Him in all that I do;
Yielding allegiance, glad-hearted and free,
This is the pathway of blessing for me.
Prayer: Almighty God,
you give the holy law to your people
so that it will always be near us and our children.
Through our Lord Jesus who has fulfilled the law in every way,
grant that we may love you with heart, soul, strength, and mind,
and our neighbor as ourselves. Amen.
Won’t You Be My Neighbor
Fred Rogers
It’s a beautiful day in this neighborhood
A beautiful day for a neighbor
Would you be mine
Could you be mine
Won’t you be my neighbor?
