12 May the Lord make your love increase and overflow for each other and for everyone else, just as ours does for you.
I find myself very similar to Jesus brother James sometimes. I have love for my own people but it takes a lot of effort to care for others who'm are very different to me. There is difficulty to feel empathy for people who were born in financially or socially advantaged upbringings. Just several books before I meditated on Ephesians 3:17 so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith; and that you, being rooted and grounded in love, and despite knowing my numbness for awhile I tend to not care enough to do anything. I possibly might not have prayed enough about this or rather have not taken opportunities to develop upon this love. Surely if I am to aspire a Christ filled heart then my beliefs should result in action.
