God of joy and compassion, who created us in love and sustains us in it still, teach us to love one another as you have loved us, that in this way, we would without fail fulfill all that you have asked of us and so live as true children of our Father, through Jesus our example and Lord, who reigns with you and the Holy Spirit in perfect union, one God, forever and ever. Amen.
‘The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery; you shall not murder; you shall not steal; you shall not covet,” and any other commandment, are summed up in this word, “You shall love your neighbor as yourself.”‘ – Romans 13:9
