The Little Key Which is Actually Very Big - LOVE!!!

They have always reminded us that between the two chapters in 1 Corinthians, 12 and 14 which speaks about the Spirit and tongues and all that is the chapter of LOVE which is 1 Corinthians 13. And now I finally see it!

I have been quite down for the past two days and quite confused also but just now I talked to gor about it and God used him to remind me the foundation, the basic truth. That is - LOVE. And now I finally see the meaning, the significance of the first part of the chapter where it says all about blowing trumpets and so on and all the gifts fading away and so on.

Now I actually saw this line which appeared before 1 Cor 13 which says : "And now I will show you the most excellent way." The way is for practicing different gifts and talents given by God as one body in Christ which the previous chapter (1 Cor 12) is talking about. Then the chapter proceeded with :
If I speak in tongues of men and of angels, but have no 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 have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing.
- 1 Cor 1-3
Abd the coming verses are the love verses where it explains what love is in God's terms. Man... just this little key will open up my mind and realize what my eyes got blinded from which is almost making me the pharisee that I DON'T WANT to be. The thing that separate a true Christian and a pharisee is only this little key which is actually very big - LOVE. And now I am free from confusion and my joy restored!!! *jumping around singing, dancing and praising God* Wee~ Love never fails! :D


"And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the freatest of these is love.
- 1 Cor 13:13"
