The whole Law can be summed up in this one command: 'Love others as you love yourself.'
Galatians 5:14
Jesus tells us that our love for each other - not our doctrinal beliefs - is our greatest witness to the world. He said, "Your strong love for each other will prove to the world that you are my disciples." (John 13:35) God wants us to be together with other believers since we can not learn to love in isolation.
Love needs to be our highest priority.
Let love be your greatest aim.
1 Corinthians 14:1
Relationships need to be a priority because life without love is worthless, love will last forever and we will be evaluated on how we loved on this earth. The essence of love is not what we think or do or provide for others, but how much we give of ourselves. How will you explain those times when projects of things were more important to you than people? Who do you need to start spending more time with? What do you need to cut out of your schedule to make that possible? What sacrifices do you need to make?
Whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to everyone.
Galatians 6:10
Use every chance you have for doing good.
Ephesians 5:16
Whenever you possibly can, do good to those who need it. Never tell your neighbor to wait until tomorrow if you can help them now.
Proverbs 3:27
