The Greatest Thing In The World
1 Corinthians 13Love
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
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. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears.
13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
Bee's Thoughts:
Sometimes I think I know what love is;
Sometimes I think I know nothing about it.
Sometimes I feel the warm that love could give;
Sometimes I feel I don't understand all about this.
Yet the bible says the greatest is love;
To experience it is the best thing on earth.
Yet I only found this love in Christ;
Human love seems to be a bunch of lies.
How I long that someone could love me as I am;
But I guess that could only happen in dreamland.
Once again I have to turn to the Author of love
To help me love others through Him as I serve.

Dear Lord,
Teach me to love in the way You do. Amen.

I found this in my email:
God said, "No"
I asked God to take away my habit.
God said, No.
It is not for me to take away, but for you to give it up.
I asked God to make my handicapped love one whole.
God said, No.
His spirit is whole, his body is only temporary.
I asked God to grant me patience.
God said, No.
Patience is a byproduct of tribulations; it isn't granted, it is learned.
I asked God to give me happiness.
God said, No.
I will give you blessings; happiness is up to you.
I asked God to spare me pain.
God said, No.
Suffering draws you apart from worldly cares and brings you closer to me.
I asked God to make my spirit grow.
God said, No.
You must grow on your own, but I will prune you to make you fruitful.
I asked God for all things that I might enjoy life.
God said, No.
I will give you life, so that you may enjoy all things.
Then, I asked God to help me LOVE others, as much as He loves me.
God said, Ahhhh, finally you have the idea!
The last sentence is identical to yours :) God said you have the idea! :)
