Corinthians 13:13
So faith, hope, love abide, these three; but the greatest of these
is love.
LOVE
WINS
What
a lovely title for a book! As we look at our world and see all the
strife around us, we wonder will we survive. The answer is YES!
because of God's plans for us and Jesus' teachings to manifest these
plans through love. How many times does humanity have to go to war
and when will it stop?
This
is a quote from the book The
Young Lions
by Irwin Shaw depicting the second World War. A minister spoke after
services in France in 1943:
"Love,"
the old minister was saying, "is the word of Christ, and it
admits of no divisions, no slyness of calculation, no diversity of
interpretation. We are told to love our neighbors as ourselves, and
our enemy as our brother, and the words and the meaning are as plain
as an iron weight in the scale in which our actions are balanced."
Dear
God, please help us to remember that Christ gave his life for us on
the cross so that we would have salvation, and we must remember his
teachings … love thy neighbor, both here and around the world.
Only LOVE will bring PEACE. Amen.
