Sometimes you just get a double dose of people problems.
- Uninsured driver totaling your (best) car
- A “number-defying” fellow-customer in the speed lane
- Someone under your authority challenging you
- The local gossip “featuring” you
- Two in authority not pulling together
- A friend ignoring you
- The driver “waving” at you with the wrong finger
- That person getting mad at you…again
- You speaking ill-advisedly
Sometimes you get more than a double dose.
What did God do about His people problems?
As I have loved you…
Hereby perceive we the love of God, because he laid down his life for us. 1 John 3:16

Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. -John 15:13
Ye know the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, that, though he was rich, yet for your sakes he became poor, that ye through his poverty might be rich. -2 Corinthians 8:9
Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another. -1 John 4:11
Be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ’s sake hath forgiven you. -Ephesians 4:32
Forbearing one another, and forgiving one another, if any man have a quarrel against any: even as Christ forgave you, so also do ye. -Colossians 3:13
For even the Son of man came not to be ministered unto, but to minister, and to give his life a ransom for many. -Mark 10:45
Christ . . . suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps. -1 Peter 2:21
Ye also ought to wash one another’s feet. For I have given you an example, that ye should do as I have done to you. -John 13:14,15
We ought to lay down our lives for the brethren. -1 John 3:16
