1 Corinthians 13:2-8
2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,[b] but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails.
In American culture I think the word LOVE is by far overused, under defined, and very much watered down... So tell me who do you LOVE? truly love-- and why? How do you love them? How do they know? What does love mean to you?
I think it's something worth pondering. Is Christ's definition of love embedded in your heart and soul? Are you carrying out what it means to truly love others as yourself?
If you are anything like me-- then you aren't. Your fall misses the mark.
