One-on-One with Ronnie Floyd on the National Day of Prayer
Floyd: “We are expecting thousands upon thousands of public gatherings across all 50 states that will pray for a ‘Love One Another’ movement to sweep over America — from our homes to our churches, communities, local governments, Congress, the White House and beyond.” - Christianity Today
It’s interesting how quickly, in Floyd’s comments, the idea of love for one another as Christ’s disciples becomes a “love one another movement to sweep over America.”
Views expressed are always my own and not my employer's, my church's, my family's, my neighbors', or my pets'. The house plants have authorized me to speak for them, however, and they always agree with me.
Scripture often says, we are to love our neighbor as our selves.
If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself,” you do well. -James 2:8
May we all pray today for God’s blessings on America.

“43 “You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ 44 But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, 45 so that you may be sons of your Father who is in heaven. For he makes his sun rise on the evil and on the good, and sends rain on the just and on the unjust. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? 47 And if you greet only your brothers, what more are you doing than others? Do not even the Gentiles do the same? 48 You therefore must be perfect, as your heavenly Father is perfect.”
