Keep on loving one another as brothers and sisters. Hebrews 13:1

There are a lot of unknowns regarding the authorship and recipient of Hebrews but some things have been uncovered by simple deduction. The audience was educated and very familiar with Judaism and the writer has deep insight to the Priesthood and Lordship of Jesus Christ. We can better see and understand God’s character through the word pictures painted by this first century preacher.

Chapter 13 teaches that love must permeate everyday life, where your foot hits the floor, where you breath your air. Love isn’t something dreamt of and never fully discovered. It is not a by-product of perfect circumstances between perfect people, gifted to a deserving few. Love is a verb, it’s something YOU do, in your home……the office……Wal Mart checkout lines……and highways posing as parking lots.

Have a LOVEly day!

Gretchen
