This is from Francis Chan.
I've read several of his books and enjoy his teaching.
"Do you know that nothing you do in this life will ever matter, unless it is about loving God and loving the people He has made."
"If I could speak all the languages of earth and of angels, but didn’t love others, I would only be a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal.
If I had the gift of prophecy, and if I understood all of God’s secret plans and possessed all knowledge, and if I had such faith that I could move mountains, but didn’t love others, I would be nothing.
If I gave everything I have to the poor and even sacrificed my body, I could boast about it; but if I didn’t love others, I would have gained nothing." - 1 Cor. 13
A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.
How do we find that kind of love, by ABIDING in Him.
Until Next Time
Agree, Mary...hey, I hope you have a beautiful day friend.
