WOMAN OF PRAISE

“Since we heard of your faith in Christ Jesus, and of the love which ye have to all the saints. v.5 For the hope which is laid up for you in heaven, whereof ye heard before in the word of the truth of the gospel.” The Colossians had love for all the saints.  The simple and wise.  The quiet and meek.   The dark-skinned and light-skinned.  The tall and short. The rich and poor.  The educated and uneducated.  The fat and lean.  They loved them all and they did it for this reason:  The hope that was laid up for them in Heaven. My little children, The hope that is laid up for you in Heaven should be enough to motivate you to love all the saints—the Africans, the Asians, the Americans, West Indians, and so on.    So what is LOVE and how do we show it?”  I Corinthians 13: 4-8 gives of an in-depth look at love or charity and how people who have LOVE behave and relate to the saints.  It will do us good to take a very close look at it and examine ourselves. ·        Love suffers
