93. Let's talk about Love!- Faith Bomb Friday- Fruit of the Spirit Series.
Talking a bit more about The Fruit of the Spirit!!
LOVE!!
1 Corinthians 13:1-7
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 a 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 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 not record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
The love being talked about in both of these instances is an agape love.
Agape love occurs when an individual sees, recognizes, understands, or appreciates the value of an object or a person, causing the viewer to behold this object or person in great esteem, awe, admiration, wonder and sincere appreciation- Rick Renner "Sparkling Gems:From the Greek" link to that devotional here >> https://amzn.to/3LoXH5g
Be encouraged to love those around you with an agape love! A love that has no strings attached! Connect to the Lord so that Holy Spirit can produce this awesome love through you!!
