Lectio — Read. Read slowly, once or twice. Let the words land. Don't analyze yet — just receive.
As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you. Remain in my love. If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and remain in his love.
I have told you this so that my joy may be in you, and your joy may be complete.
This is my commandment: love one another as I have loved you.
