Mature Love

When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child.

When I became a (Wo) man, I put aside childish things.

For now we see  indistinctly, as in a mirror, but then face to face.

Now I know in part, but then I will know fully, as I am fully known.

Now there three remain: faith, hope, love.

But the greatest of these is love. 1 Cor 13:11-13

As a child grows so does their understanding. As I grow in Christ, spend time in His presence and read His word, I mature spiritually. Yet there are still thigs I will not know until I see Him, face to face. Ah! What a day that will be, lots of hugs please! A walk in a lovely forest and talking, fellowshipping, laughing, eating together. I will know so much just by being with Him. Awesome!

The Corinthian Christians proclaimed wisdom but were behaving like foolish children. Paul was teaching them true wisdom. I pray they had hearts open to truth and a willingness to receive.

Faith, hope and love remain after all else is sifted away and even faith and hope will be no more when I see Him. But love will never disappear, it is the connections, the links, the energy that holds it all together. Fancy living in complete love. Wow!
