"You my brothers and sisters were were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the flesh; rather serve one another humbly in love. For the
entire law is fulfilled in keeping this one command: Love your neighbour as yourself" - Galatians 5:13 - 14
This Scripture takes me back to where Jesus is talking to the rich young ruler and the young man asks Jesus, "Who is my neighbour?" and Jesus answers with the Parable of the Good Samaritan. The thing about truly loving our neighbour is that it is impossible if we look at people through our human eyes. Because human logic dictates that "I can only love those who love me". This is why the law can only be fulfilled when we are surrendered at throne of mercy, so God can replace our measly human affection, with an irrational love.
Grace and Peace!
