THE HUMANNESS OF REAL LOVE
Mark 2:13-22
Jesus had principles, but no hard-and-fast rules. He never wavered a jot on principle. But he was as pliable as love when it came to fitting into people’s needs. He met people where they were. He gave them just what they needed, forgiving sins, or giving bread for their hunger. With greatest patience and thoughtfulness he adapted himself so as to help and win. It’s the love-rule of service. He’s our Example.
