Love

God is bigger than your mistakes, even when you go off track, He's already planned a new route for you.


If I give everything I own to the poor and even go to the stake to be burned as a martyr, but I don't love, I've gotten nowhere. 


So, no matter what I say, what I believe, and what I do, I'm bankrupt without love. 


Love never gives up. Love cares more for others than for self. 

Love doesn't want what it doesn't have. Love doesn't strut, Doesn't have a swelled head, Doesn't force itself on others, Isn't always "me first," Doesn't fly off the handle, Doesn't keep score of the sins of others, Doesn't revel when others grovel, Takes pleasure in the flowering of truth, Puts up with anything, Trusts God always, Always looks for the best, Never looks back, But keeps going to the end. (1 Corinthians 13:3-7 MSG)


God looks for the best in us, let us stop focusing on our sins, we aren't perfect! Jesus celebrates the good in us.


And so faith, hope, love abide [faith--conviction and belief respecting man's relation to God and divine things; hope--joyful and confident expectation of eternal salvation; love--true affection for God and man, growing out of God's love for and in us], these three; but the greatest of these is love. (1 Corinthians 13:13 AMP)
