Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God’s mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God—this is your true and proper worship. Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
Let love be without hypocrisy. Detest evil; cling to what is good.
Love is patient, love is kind. Love does not envy, is not boastful, is not arrogant, is not rude, is not self-seeking, is not irritable, and does not keep a record of wrongs. Love finds no joy in unrighteousness but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love one another deeply as brothers and sisters. Take the lead in honoring one another.
He said to him, “Love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and most important command.
Do not lack diligence in zeal; be fervent in the Spirit; serve the Lord.
Rejoice in hope; be patient in affliction; be persistent in prayer.
Share with the saints in their needs; pursue hospitality.

If we’re going to be people known by our love, we must resist what is not.
Through Jesus, sin and suffering and death will no longer have the last word.
“Generosity creates the family that it believes in.” – Henri Nouwen
“[a host] gives them a friendly space, where they may feel free to come and go, to be close and distant, to rest and to play, to talk and to be silent, to eat and to fast. The paradox indeed is that hospitality asks for the creation of an empty space where the guest can find his own soul.” – Henri Nouwen
“The gospel is the good news that God’s kingdom has come near in Jesus Christ, and through his life, death, resurrection, and enthronement, the powers of sin & death no longer have the last word.” – Rich Villodas
