Are You Willing to Lay Down Your Life for Your Brother?

Word for December 20th, 2021

Are you willing to lay down your life for your brother? Ponder that, what that means, for it doesn't just mean physical death, to lay your life down. For some it may mean that, but it means way more than that. It means are you willing to lay down your unforgiveness for your brother that he would be set free? Are you able and willing to lay down your resentment? Because see, laying those things down puts you in a position to love because that is an act of love, to love one another as I have loved you. That is within you already should you choose it, should you choose the love that is already within you, should you walk from that place of love. That is sacrificing yourself, your pride, your rights you think you have to be offended, your selfishness, your rebellious nature, your flesh, your time. It goes on and on and on, 'cause all of that has to do with you - I...I...I - instead of other. Love gives to others. You need to lay yourself down. These things need be laid down so you can walk in that pure Love that I have already placed within your heart. So check your heart. Are you willing to lay your life down? Whatever aspects of your life that you are holding onto, are you willing to lay them down? You have the ability to do so because I have already given that to you, but you have to be willing. You have to be aware of what you are holding up in a selfish way, that you're not willing to let go of. I know you can do it, for I have given you the 'you can.' I've also placed within you the will to do it. So you align your will with My Will that already dwells within you and then it is done! Love one another as I have Loved you!
