8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away.
What Jumped Out at Me:
I particularly appreciate this Scripture as it reminds me of God and Him sharing His Spirit and loving nature with us. He created us to love, to be loved and we are dependent upon His love. I often sit still and absorb, contemplate and thank Him for His love, which is so much more powerful than sin, death and everything else that man may experience. There are times when men don’t love, and there are times when men don’t love themselves, but God, our Father, who is Love, for certain, has proven His love for each one of us. For that, I am grateful. I believe His love is more precious than rubies. I think His love is worth far more than diamonds, and certainly more valuable than the arrows of temptation which every man encounters in life. Sometimes, we can feel his love, other times we can experience His love by faith and other times through hope, He reveals Himself, hence, His love.
God is Awesome.
How does this change my life?
Once again through God’s Word, I am reminded about this hierarchy, faith, hope and love, which shall remain. Of which, love is the greatest and is the primary thing I should focus on. Rather than striving for it, I will submit myself, and allow His love to lead me in His direction and wherever He would have me to go.
Prayer:
Lord, thank you for your indescribable LOVE. You loved us so much that even while we were yet sinners, your Son shed His Blood and died for us. You have demonstrated your Love towards us so much, that we are without excuse if we don’t acknowledge you. Thank you again Lord for loving me/us enough to rescue me/us, keep me/us and bless me/us the way that you have. Help us to share the Love of God in the earth every day in a way that is pleasing to You.
In Jesus Christ Name I pray,
Amen.
