JESUS

Keep short accounts with the Lord-repent quickly.
Forgive others when they sin against you.
Love one another.

Do first!

A friend that will care for me even when I’m not friendly.
The truth is that to have a friend like that,
I must learn to be that kind of friend.
8/19 Proverbs 17:9

Live life with genuine care for others.
