The Secret of Brotherly Love by Andrew Murray
The Secret of Brotherly Love 30-Day Devotional Is biblical and God-honoring love attainable between human beings? As a part of his classic Secret Series devotionals, Andrew Murray wrote this month-long devotional to remind believers that this kind of love is not only attainable, but it is commanded. Through the gracious spirit of God, believers can be a flowing stream of God’s love to the world. When a Christian comes to understand that the love wherewith God and Christ love him should be in him too—and not merely as a pleasant experience but as a divine life-power, abiding in him—he can have assurance that the Spirit of God longs to effect this love in him. And as he believes this, and surrenders himself fully to the Holy Spirit, he will find that he can and will love all men. Andrew Murray, The Secret of Brotherly Love

CONFESSIO~ OF SIN.<br />
UR Father, we bow before <strong>The</strong>e<br />
O in deep humility at the thought<br />
<strong>of</strong> Thine unsearchable love, and the love<br />
<strong>of</strong> Christ, which passes all knowledge.<br />
0 God, we are filled with shame at the<br />
thought that we so little know Thy love,<br />
and so little desire to know it. Thou<br />
hast given us the highest pro<strong>of</strong> <strong>of</strong> Thy<br />
love, in the love <strong>of</strong> Christ our Lord on<br />
the Cross, and yet we so little love <strong>The</strong>e<br />
in return.<br />
Yea, Lord, we repent in dust and ashes<br />
that we love <strong>The</strong>e so little, and do not<br />
live to Thy honour and glory. We<br />
so little manifest that fervent love to<br />
the brethren, <strong>by</strong> which the world would<br />
know that we are Christ's disciples, and<br />
yet Thou lovest us with a share <strong>of</strong> the<br />
same love wherewith Thou hast loved<br />
Thy Son.<br />
0 God, we beseech <strong>The</strong>e, pour out Thy<br />
Spirit upon Thy Church, and the power<br />
<strong>of</strong> Thy love into our hearts, through<br />
the Holy Spirit. And grant that,<br />
throughout the world, witnesses may be<br />
friund to publish with divine power, <strong>by</strong><br />
word and deed · God is <strong>Love</strong> ; God is<br />
love. Amen.
