Timeless Love Quote for Everyday Living
Love your neighbor as yourself.
Matthew 22:39
This well-known love quote from the Bible is simple and direct, but can be challenging to put into practice. It’s easy to recognize it as a beautiful ideal, but living it out in everyday life takes thought, humility, and spiritual growth.

Why Is “Love Your Neighbor as Yourself” Such a Powerful Quote?
When Jesus spoke these words, he was responding to a question about the greatest commandment. He paired love of God with love for others, showing that spirituality isn’t separate from daily life. In fact, the way we treat others is one of the clearest expressions of our love for God. Loving God isn’t an abstract concept; it’s a practice we can live everyday.

“More love is the great need of mankind,” wrote Mary Baker Eddy (Miscellaneous Writings 1883–1896, 107).
While facing animosity from one of her students, she penned a poem titled, “Love,” which includes the lines: “Seek holy thoughts and heavenly strain, / That make men one in love remain.” Learn how this poem inspired readers and became a beloved hymn in this 9-minute video, which originally aired in 2021.
