Let love be without hypocrisy.
Abhor what is evil.
Cling to what is good.
Be devoted to each other in brotherly love.
Give preference to one another in honor.
Bless those who persecute you.
Never take your own revenge.
Never pay back evil for evil.
Be overcome with good.
Accept the one weak in faith.
Don't judge him.
Observe the day for the Lord.
Thank Him for it.
Do this, knowing the time, that it is already the hour for you to awaken from sleep; for now salvation is nearer to us than we believed.
Not one of us lives for himself, and not one dies for himself. For if we live, we live for the Lord.
Romans 12-14.
Do that. Practice that. Let's see what a difference we can make if we do.

Thank you Jessica for this, it is encouraging to hear that someone else goes through rough times. Not that it sounded like you were going through anything particulary difficult, I guess it's all in perspective. I hope that your time management is getting better, I guess asking you to help out in choir kinda added stuff for you to do, but I really feel you will add to our class by playing the hymns. Please don't let it be stressful for you. I have had a particularly difficult day, as a mother, and ask that you lift up unspoken prayer requests for me, whenever you read this. It is really hard to be a mom sometimes and to know the right thing to do. Thank you for being faithful to the Lord and faithful to your church family. You truly are a blessing to me. I hope you are having a blessed day.
