“... Jesus, knowing that His hour had come to pass from this world to the Father, having loved those who were His in the world, loved them to the end.”
John 13:1
Among the people whom we know, we label many as “friends” or “loved ones”, but can we be absolutely sure that they will love us till the end? Sooner or later, we will realise that there is only one ever-loving and ever-faithful friend: Jesus our Lord, who loves us in all circumstances - while we are awake or asleep, in sickness or health, whether we are upright or sinners. Even when our dearest friend may get fed up with us and leave us, Jesus still continues to love us. Realising His great love, let us try to love our Lord in return, more and more each day.
