Bible verse
Luke 6:31
“And as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.”
What it means
Jesus gives a simple, searching rule for how to treat others: do to them what you would want done to you. It flips our instinct to demand our own due and asks us to imagine ourselves in another's place. This is love made practical, spilling into everyday kindness, patience, and fairness. We can live this way only because Christ first treated us far better than we deserved, meeting our deepest need at the cross and teaching our hearts to extend the same grace outward.
Read it, pray it, live it
On The Living Bread you can read the whole chapter, save this verse, ask Simon to explain it, pray it over your life, and share it with someone who needs it today.
