Advent Photo-A-Day...Day 23

Neighbor...

When someone uses the word neighbor the thought that comes to mind is the person who lives next to you; whether it be across the street or down the road.  Yet; we have more neighbors than those that live by us.  Our neighbors are all the people who walk this earth and we are asked to love our neighbor as our self. (Located multiple times in scripture).  I don't know about you but that command makes me stop and think; probably even cringe.  We are to love everyone and in Romans 13:10 it states - "Love does no wrong to a neighbor; therefore love is the fulfilling of the law."  I have miserably failed this command; but Christ didn't!  He fulfilled the law perfectly with love!  So we don't need to cover our eyes; but look to Christ in how to love our neighbor.
