1 Corinthians 13:1-3
I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity; I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profited me nothing.
What of Today’s Verse…
Love – in the weeks before Valentine’s Day we want to remember the real meaning of love. Without the motivation and expression of love, all "Christian" activities are more "activity" than Christian. Love is the expression of Christ’s character and presence in our lives through deeds did for others.
Let us Pray:
Loving Heavenly Father, thank you so much for your demonstration of love in Jesus, help me to love as he did – selflessly, sacrificially, and consistently, so others may know of your love through my actions. In Jesus Name I pray. Amen.
Words of Wisdom
Learning to grow…
Your goals are important because of the person you become in achieving them. Attainment of your goals is always good, but even better is the growth that you experience along the way.
Look at the goals that you have set for yourself and ask yourself: what kind of person must I become to reach these goals? What skills, values, character traits, knowledge and disciplines must I develop to accomplish these things?
Life is a never-ending growth process, and without growth there is no life. Your goals and dreams will point you in the direction of the growth that you need for your own life to be filled with accomplishment.
