1 Corinthians 13:8,13 Love will never end. But all those gifts will come to an end—even the gift of prophecy, the gift of speaking in different kinds of languages, and the gift of knowledge ... these three things continue: faith, hope, and love. And the greatest of these is love.

I have a friend whose wife, once their children had grown up, informed him that she was leaving. No reason in particular. She just wanted a fresh start.
As he was packing up his house, putting all these things that had mattered so much to him into boxes, it was gut wrenching. But his elderly father gave him some sage advice. “Son,” he said, “it’s only stuff.”
Have you ever stopped to think about how heavily invested you might be in things that that don’t really matter, that won’t last: career, abilities, reputation … stuff … when there’s one thing that we all too often neglect and allow to fall by the wayside that’ll outlast them all.
1 Corinthians 13:8,13 Love will never end. But all those gifts will come to an end—even the gift of prophecy, the gift of speaking in different kinds of languages, and the gift of knowledge … these three things continue: faith, hope, and love. And the greatest of these is love.
As you navigate your way through life toward your ultimate destiny, let me implore you not to focus on the temporal at the expense of the eternal; not to allow the greatest to be crowded out by the least; not to allow love to be displaced by stuff.
Because all those other things will come to an end. But love, the greatest of all things, will never end. Live a life of love.
That’s God’s Word. Fresh … for you … today.
