Presenting ...
... a weekly letter of encouragement.
24 September, 1997 - Singapore
Good Morning!
HOW AM I DOING IN EXPRESSING LOVE TO THOSE THE CLOSEST TO
ME?
"If I speak with the
eloquence of men and of angels, but have no love, I become no
more than blaring brass or crashing cymbal.
"If I have the gift
of foretelling the future and hold in my mind not only all human
knowledge but the very secrets of God, and if I have also have
absolute faith which can move mountains, but have no love, I achieve
precisely nothing.
"This love of which
I speak is slow to lose patience - it looks for a way of being
constructive.
"It is not possessive:
it is neither anxious to impress nor does it cherish inflated
ideas of its own importance.
"Love has good manners
and does not pursue selfish advantage.
"It is not touchy.
"It does not keep account
of evil or gloat over the wickedness of other people. On the
contrary, it is glad with all good men when truth prevails.
"Love knows no limit
to its endurance, no end to its trust, no fading of its hope;
it can outlast anything.
"It is in fact the
one thing that still stands when all else has fallen."+
My prayer is that you are having a great week!
