Beloved, we love God because he first loved us.

Jesus returned to Galilee in the power of the Spirit, and news of him spread throughout the whole region.

Beloved, if God so loved us, we also must love one another.

After the five thousand had eaten and were satisfied, Jesus made his disciples get into the boat and precede him to the other side toward Bethsaida, while he dismissed the crowd.

Beloved, let us love one another, because love is of God; everyone who loves is begotten by God and knows God.

When Jesus saw the vast crowd, his heart was moved with pity for them, for they were like sheep without a shepherd; and he began to teach them many things.
