—Leviticus 19:13-18
by: Benny Uhlich.
This passage lays out how we should and shouldn’t treat other people. A lot of it comes down to being kind and loving, while also being fair and honest. We should be showing our neighbors the love that God shows us. This does not mean that we should allow others to take advantage of us, but we should do our part in not taking advantage of others or harming them in any other fashion. These verses end with a call to action that sums it all up perfectly, “Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against anyone among your people, but love your neighbor as yourself. I am the Lord” (v.18, NIV).
