Ephesians 5:2 says, "Walk in love." The original Greek says "peripateo" - "walk around" in love. To "walk" is just to go somewhere, but to walk around means out of a straight line, to be willing to go out of your way, out of your course, out of your schedule, to love, to live your life willing to be interrupted to love, to break out of your routine or regular course, to bless, to help, to encourage, to touch, to share the gospel. So go outside of your way to the poor, the foreigner, the one you wouldn't normally talk to, the one who's different from you and not in your regular way. Go over and above to love when it's not easy or convenient. That's what Messiah did. He went out of His way. He left heaven and came to earth; walked around where the need was, to reach you. You do the same. Walk around in love. Go out of your way because that's the kind of love that saved you. God loved you with a love that was definitely out of the way.
