I have been thinking a lot this week about charity.
I would like to share with you one of my favorite scriptures on charity it is found in
"charity suffereth long, and is kind, and envieth not, and is not puffed up, seekth not her own, is not easily provoked, thinkth no evil, and rejoices not in iniquity but rejoices in the truth, bearers all things believeth all things hopeth all things, endureth all things."
The next few versus go on to explain how charity is the Pure Love Of Christ and how it endureth forever and that we need to have that. In the last verse 48 it talks about how when he comes again that we will be like him if we have charity.
I know that many of us experience charity in our lives. We also can experience times in our lives when we are filled with that charity. For me I just can't always hold on to that because the flesh takes over and life gets busy. But I know that we can cling to those memories and have hope that we will have them again if we strive and seek after truth.
That is my hope, for the world to seek after truth and righteousness and I hope that we all can reach out to everyone around us to lift and build and strengthen them along their way. This is our purpose on Earth brothers and sisters. Christ came to Earth and taught and loved no matter who it was the rich man and the poor man he loved everybody and that's what we must do also.
Pray to be filled with charity. Pray for the spiritual eyes to see others for who they really are Sons and Daughters of God. May we serve others and be filled with Charity the Pure Love Of Christ.
I love you all brothers and sisters have a great week.
