Do you ever want to call someone out to see if what they’re saying is true? This is what Jesus was talking about in Matthew 5:33-38. He was calling us to just tell the truth no matter what we were talking about! He calls us to have relationships that are simple, honest, and truthful. He calls us to leave no doubt that we love others. And this is the example that God gives us, that he spared nothing, not even his Son’s life, to show us His love so we don’t doubt it.
Today’s challenge: where are you leaving room for doubt in your relationships? Reflect on this, maybe even journal about it, and then take action: whoever that friend or sibling or parent is, make sure they know today without a doubt that you love them. And rest in the fact that God spared nothing, not even his son, to show his love for you.
