HOW do we put on love?

The job description includes both qualities and activities that we are to take on. They make up our project of love.

#1: Serve one another: bear one another’s burdens.

#2: Perform good works.
 
#3: Foster unity in the body.

#4: Adopt love’s qualities.
 
#5: Put other people’s needs ahead of your own.

#6: Never take your own revenge. Be at peace with others.

#7: Edify one another by speaking the truth & singing.

Some of these focus on action, on activities.
