When it comes to love, none of us are off the hook. Jesus teaches…that this virtue in particular takes top priority; he calls it “the great and first commandment.” Introverted or extroverted, enneagram 2 or 8, we are all commissioned uniquely to love, and enabled to do so through the Spirit.

When it comes to transformation as believers, the work is often so slow that it is imperceptible from our own vantage point.

“Do it immediately, do it with prayer;
Do it reliantly, casting all care;
Do it with reverence, tracing His hand
Who placed it before thee with earnest command.
Stayed on Omnipotence, safe ‘neath His wing,
Leave all results, do the next thing.”
