If I have love

From today's reading: "If I speak in the tongues of mortals and of angels. . . , if I have prophetic powers,. . . faith to move mountains, . . . if I give away all my possessions but do not have love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal - I gain nothing." 1 Corinthians 13:1-3 A popular wedding scripture that goes much deeper than the love of husband and wife. It encompasses the deep love of God for his creation, and our love for the creator. It is intentional love - agape love - that flows from our relationship with God and out to the world around us. If the love in our God relationship is present and right and good, then all of our other relationships will be predicated on it and they also will be good and right and all of our efforts based in this love will be blessed.
