Love, In You!

Friends,

Welcome to a new week of Glossa Water! This week we'll be taking time to think about Pastor Benji's sermon from this past Sunday, which was based on First Corinthians 13.

Although the sermon was preached on Valentine's Day, we're not really thinking of First Corinthians 13 in light of current notions of romantic or erotic love. Instead, we are considering how the love of God is expressed in our day-to-day interactions with everyone we meet.

The title of the sermon was "Love Never Fails", those three words that appear at the end of verse 8. Pastor Benji shared with us that the phrase is not just the concept of "not failing", but also the concept of "not falling": that is, we can count on love to get the job done. True love, God's love, won't let us down.

And that is the kind of love we want to show to others; a love that is constant and consistent. For the next few blogs, we'll reflect on this idea, and challenge, of loving others with an unfailing love.
