LOVE
WHAT IS IT?
Did you know that there is a chapter in the Bible that is known as the Book of Love? Yep, There sure is. It is in the book of 1 Corinthians chapter 13.
The apostle Paul wrote this letter to the Church at Corinth. He wrote this chapter to teach them what Love is and isn't. He wanted them to know the true Love God's children should show for each other. Nanny has put this into kid's terms so maybe we can understand it a little better. You can go HERE to read the King James Version.
If I can speak many languages, even the language of Angels but do not say the words with the kind of love Jesus would I sound like rusty hinges on a banging door.
If I know everything before it happens, and if I am the smartest kid in class, and if I am positive God can do anything, but do not share it with others with love like Jesus did. Then I can't help anybody.
If I give away all my toys to kids who don't have any and if I am willing to die for what I believe but do not love as Jesus did then it means nothing at all.
Love takes turns,
Love is gentle and kind,
Love does not wish for things that belong to someone else.
Love does not brag or try to be better than others,
Love is not rude, and doesn't demand it's own way,
Love puts others first,
Love does not get mad in a hurry
Love does not keep score when someone wrongs me,
Love is not happy when the bad guys are winning, but
Gets excited when truth comes out on top,
Love puts up with a whole lot, always trusts God,
never lets me down and never ends.
Love keeps on going when everything else fails. Someday there will be no more talking. All I have learned will not matter anymore. Besides I only know part of the truth, but when the whole truth comes, even the part I know will disappear. Now I am a little child. I talk like a child, understand like a child, think like a child. But when I grow up I won't act like a child anymore. Right now I can only see God's reflection as a piece of polished metal, like the mirrors of the people of Corinth. But someday I will be able to see His face, and I will know Him as well as He already knows me.
Of these three faith, hope and love, the greatest of these is LOVE.
WOW THAT’S SO AWESOME!!!NEXT TIME YOUR IN A TOUGH SITUATION MAYBE YOU CAN USE THE JESUS KIND OF LOVE.
