John 15:9-11 (NIV)
9 “As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my love. 10 If you keep my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commands and remain in his love. 11 I have told you this so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.

 

Choose one or two key verses from the Scripture reading in John today and do at least one of the following for your chosen verse(s).
A –  Ask questions of the text (Who, what, why, where, when)
– Emphasize certain words as you read the text over & over
I  –  In your own words (paraphrase one or more verses)
O  – Other verses in the Bible that say the same or opposite
U  – Use it; apply the truth from the text in your life

 

Precious Savior I am overwhelmed by the Love that You have shown to me while I deserved none. You took my sin on the cross and died for me so that I could be forgiven and washed clean. Help me to be obedient to Your Word and all of Your commands so that I can continue to develop in faithfulness and grow closer to You. Amen.
