The greatest of these is love.

1 Corinthians 13:11-13, When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known. So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Paul encourages us that love never ends, and even though we may not see clearly now, one day we shall know fully, face to face. We have the gifts of the spirit, which have to be done in love to be genuine. He loved us enough to send us Jesus, who died to set us free and was raised from the dead! He is the way, the truth and the life, and no one comes to the Father but by Him!

Thank You for saving us; keep us walking in Your light and Your love as You give Your gifts.
