Love never fails!

“Love never fails [it never fades nor ends]. But as for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for the gift of special knowledge, it will pass away.” (1 Corinthians 13:8)

Today’s devotional serves more as a challenge than anything else. From time to time, I will crack open the Bible and turn over to 1 Corinthians 13 and read the whole chapter a few times over, allowing it to sink down deep. 

 Sometimes, especially in the midst of a project, or just the busyness of life, it can be easy to get tunnel vision. 

But as my pastor says, “People work is more important than paperwork.” - Pastor Jim Frease

1 Corinthians 13, often coined the Love chapter, helps me keep the why behind the what clearly in view. 

God is all about people! He loves you more than you will ever know! Did you realize that He is always thinking good things about you?! That you are His favorite! You are the apple of His eye! Only God can do that, have more than one favorite at a time! What an awesome God we serve. :)

I want to encourage and challenge you and me to keep focused on the things that truly matter. God is Love. Therefore, let us focus on loving Him and loving people today. Be sure to take some special time to reach out to someone today, encourage them, lift them up, let them know how special they are to you, to the Lord! 

We are living in crazy times. People all over the world are hurting, struggling, confused, and lost. Take some time today to be a light! 

Keep this in mind when you are out there spreading love:

God is love. 

Love is not God. 

Therefore when you Spread God, you will spread love. :)

How do we do this? By spreading the Word. Stick to the Bible. Always accompany your good works with the Good News! 

And remember, until next time, what you make happen for others God will make happen for you!

In Christ,

Joshua Scott Zeitz
