Romans 12:9-13

9Love is to be sincere and active [the real thing—without guile and hypocrisy]. Hate what is evil [detest all ungodliness, do not tolerate wickedness]; hold on tightly to what is good.

10Be devoted to one another with [authentic] brotherly affection [as members of one family], give preference to one another in honor;

11never lagging behind in diligence; aglow in the Spirit, enthusiastically serving the Lord;

12constantly rejoicing in hope [because of our confidence in Christ], steadfast and patient in distress, devoted to prayer [continually seeking wisdom, guidance, and strength],

13contributing to the needs of God’s people, pursuing [the practice of] hospitality.
