Day 79: The First Fruit of the Spirit is LOVE
Love! The first fruit of the spirit is love. It is the greatest gift of all.
1 Corinthians 13:2 … and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned,[a] but have not love, it profits me nothing. 4 Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; 5 does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil; 6 does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; 7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. 8 Love never fails.
Love is laying down your life for someone so that they can find theirs.
How deep is your love? How is love stretch you? What is the fruit in your life from having, being in, experiencing love?
And as much as we think we know love there are depths of love that we have yet to experience. We just have to say yes to it.

May 3, 2016 at 11:13 pmI think I believe in this. I am back in love after a very long time. I think that we MIGHT be fundamentally different? I am exploring Polyamory at this point in my life, but think I have found a partner for the future and together we will explore and expand our love and futures. I would love to talk to you and get some help. Good luck to you after your appearance on Dr. Phil today. Wishing you peace, love and happiness and HOPING for your HELP too!!
