"If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no records of wrong. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perserveres. Love never fails..."
-1 Corinthians 13:1-8
I was doing a bible course online and one of the questions asked me "Who is God"?
The first thing that popped up was this passage in 1 Corinthians. Chapter 13 is considered "The Love Chapter", because it is about love. What I realized though is if you replace the word 'love' with God, you get a whole different meaning.
So who is God?
Read the passage over again, and instead, replace 'love' with God. Once you read it, I think you'll start to understand. God is love.
Peace.Love.Happiness.Smiles
