My Thoughts- 1 Corinthians 13
This book in the bible is very popular and chances of you've heard, at least part of it, before. In this book Paul is writing to the Corinthians. What is interesting about Corinth was it was a city known for its sin. It was the last place anyone expected a church to rise up. But, because God is so awesome, he doesn't work by expected and unexpected and a large church was planted there. In this book Paul is writing to the Corinthians about struggles they are going through in their faith, and in this chapter he talks about love. What I found most profound about this chapter is when he is talking about what love is...this is how God loves us! It's hard to read this section without thinking "Wow, I wish I had someone in my life would love me like that" whether it be a friend, family member, or significant other. The great news is, if we have accepted God as our Lord and Savior, we already do! And He's the Creator of the universe! Even though we are so unworthy we already have the perfect love, God's love. And just as He has given us this love, we should be striving to give it to others as well, and reflect back what God has given to us.
