Verse of the Day: Mark 12:31

The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.

What does it truly mean to love your neighbor as yourself? It means showing kindness and compassion to everyone, no matter who they are, what their background is, where they come from, or their social status. It’s about being selfless rather than selfish and genuinely caring about other people as much as you care about yourself. It includes trying to understanding and not judge. It’s also about sharing in the happiness and struggles of those around you. Simply put, it’s treating others how you would like to be treated. Jesus’ message encourages us to build our lives on love and compassion for all, making this commandment the cornerstone of a Christian life.
