THE LIFT OF LOVE
1 Cor. 13:8
True love is of God, for God
is love. Love in its highest reach
is true affection and faithful de
votion of the soul toward God
and man. Love is an external
boon to life.
Life is greatly enriched when it
goes out in true affection for
man and faithful devotion toward
God. Love will make all relation
of life sweeter, all duties of life
more delightful, all burdens of
life more hearable, and all plans
of life more pleasant. Love will
enrich thought, desires, purposes,
conversation, and activities of
life. Love for God will make
prayer and fellowship more real, i
Love for man will make service i
for humanity more sincere and
pleasant.
When life is dominated by true
love inspired of God, it will grow
and develop and serve for love
“beareth all things, believeth all
things, hopeth all things, endureth
all things.” Love enables parents
to make the home happy. Love
enables children to grow in body,
mind, soul. Love enables the
church to teach the Word, to win
the lost, to worship the Lord, to
minister to the needy, and to ac
complish God’s will on earth.
Love will enable nations to live
together on earth in peace and
mutual helpfulness. Love is the
golden cord that binds man to
man and all to God.
Other things may fail, but not
love. It never fails. Prophecies
shall fail and tongues shall cease
and knowledge shall vanish away,
but love shall continue. Love is
eternal. Its effects are eternal.
Its influence is everlasting. Love
can take a human life and make
it a saint. Love can extend the
service of human hands through
ages. True love will go on and
on loving and serving unto the
perfect day. Magnify love. Ex
perience love for God. Express
love for all men. He an example
of a loving soul in a world of
war. Try the way of love in all
contacts.
