| Love edifies, builds up. 1 Corinthians 8:1--"Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies."
God, in His great love toward us, is using all our
circumstances to build us up. He has perfect love, &
when we are surrendered to His wisdom, we just keep
growing and growing. This also helps us in relating with those around us.
Remembering that "love edifies", we are able to choose
our words more carefully. So often there is the urge
to tell someone a thing or two "for their own good."
But if we stop first to remember that "love edifies",
our words will be building-up words, beneficial and kind.
Just two words, easy to memorize: love edifies. |
