Today’s passage reminds us: Real love is more than words—it’s action.

3. ✝️ Romans 12:9–14

Paul gives a practical guide for living out God’s righteousness in everyday life. It starts with genuine love—love that isn’t fake or selective. Hate what is evil, cling to what is good, and show honor to others. Rejoice in hope, be patient in trials, and constant in prayer. Bless even those who hurt you.

4. 📖 Key Verse

“Let love be genuine.” (v. 9a)

5. 📝 Reflection

If there were a Christian “to-do list,” this passage would be it. And at the top? Love. Not the shallow, Instagram-worthy kind, but real, sacrificial love—the kind God showed us through Jesus.

Want to reflect God’s righteousness in your daily life? Start here: love without filters. Love your friends, yes—but also those who annoy you, hurt you, or disagree with you. Genuine love isn’t easy, but it’s the clearest evidence of a transformed life.

6. 💬 What does this passage speak to you today?

Lord, teach me to love like You love—genuine, humble, and without conditions.
Help me cling to what is good, be patient in trials, and bless even those who oppose me.
Make my life a reflection of Your love today.
Amen.
