Mumbles – Marvel noted he successfully broke a sweat in the chill & French Press apparently does not own pants.

COT:

Leviticus 19:18,  Luke 6:27,  Mark 12:30-31

Each of the above reference “love your neighbor as yourself” & “love your enemies”.

How do we do that? First we must have our heart postured toward God. He has to be our focus. We are selfish in our own ways, and that hinders us from learning about our neighbor, speaking to those we may not agree with or to those we would rather not “know”. Often we get caught up in position or status (like watching people board a flight) – when really our focus should be on character, ours and others. We must give others respect, even though they may not “deserve it”, because Jesus did that for us. This is the unconditional love we can show to those around us.
