Genuine Love (Romans 12:9-13)
A while back, someone gave me a Bible that I just love. The cover is made of super soft leather, the pages are thin but strong, and the print is nice and sharp. Inside the cover, there's a little stamp that says "genuine leather."
That word genuine stuck with me. It's not fake; it's the real deal.
This Week at Grace, we're continuing in Romans 12:9-13, where Paul talks about what genuine love looks like. Not just words or good intentions, but the kind of love that's real, honest, and shows up in how we live. The kind that makes a difference in how we treat each other, how we care for people, and how we reflect Jesus.
I'm excited to continue learning and growing as we offer ourselves to God together.

Romans 12:9-13
9 Let love be genuine. Abhor what is evil; hold fast to what is good. 10 Love one another with brotherly affection. Outdo one another in showing honor.11 Do not be slothful in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord. 12 Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. 13 Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality.
