Love is the most powerful force on Earth, yet it's often misunderstood because we view it in selfish ways. It's easy to love when it's convenient, but Jesus calls us to a higher standard—love that serves others, even when it's difficult. That kind of love we’re called to live isn’t possible on our own; we need the help of the Holy Spirit to love like Jesus. Yet that cost leads to transformation, not just for the one loved, but for the one loving.

During Holy Week, Jesus didn’t just speak about love; He lived this kind of love. From washing the feet of His disciples to willingly going to the cross, Jesus showed that real love always comes with a cost.

If you’ve been holding on to past pain or disappointment, maybe it’s time to release that and cling to the Source of love Himself.
