HEAD 

Have you ever been in a situation and you found yourself wondering, "What should I do? How would Jesus want me to react?" Thankfully, we have the Bible to help guide us and teach us. Read Romans 12:9-21. In this passage, the apostle Paul writes letters to Christians in Rome, teaching them how to live their lives in a way that is pleasing to God. From these verses, we learn some really important rules regarding how we should show love to others that we can put into practice every day. 

HEART 

Verse 21 says, "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." When you first read that verse, it may seem a little odd. But, when you think about it, that is exactly how Jesus wants us to treat others, even those who may not be very nice to us. Try to show them kindness, pray for them, and be an example of God's love for them. 

HANDS 

Romans tells us how Christians can put love into action. Who is someone you love, and how can you show them Christ-like love this week? 

Prayer: God, you are so loving! Thank you for the Bible stories that teach us and guide us! God, help me to show Your love to everyone around me. Amen.
