“Love suffers long and is kind; love does
not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave
rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; does not rejoice
in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails.”
1
Corinthians 13:4-8a
We
live in a world of uncertainty. By now I’m
sure you have contemplated on more than one occasion what lies ahead for the
economic future of our nation as well as your personal concerns. Will our economy get moving…will I find a job…how
will I feed my family…how will I afford the skyrocketing gas prices…who will be
our next President?
Uncertainty.
On
and on it goes. James 4:14 (NASB) tells
us, “you do not know what your life will be like
tomorrow.”
Feeling
of hopelessness.
Everything
will change…that you can count on that.
However,
this LOVE
does not give up!
It
is a love that doesn’t believe in failure, for it knows that God has a habit of
taking the world’s classification of failures and producing spiritual giants. It is a love that hopes an unsaved family
member or friend will believe in the Gospel and make that heart transaction to
receive Christ as their personal Lord and Savior. It is a love that prays for forgiveness of
sins.
It
is a love that takes God at His word.
No
matter what uncertainties plague your mind today, no worries…God is our great hope.
Psalm
33:22 “Let your unfailing love
surround us, LORD, for our hope is in you alone.”
Forever
His,
Anita
