Love
“So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love” (1 Corinthians 13:13).
We have seen the importance of faith and hope. 1 Corinthians 13 tells us that love is even more important. For love does not perish. Even in the new world, where faith and hope will be fulfilled and thus unnecessary, love will flourish as never before.
God Himself was guided by love when He sent His Son to earth to save mankind. Jesus loved His followers to the utmost and gave His life for them. Just before the time came, He said, “A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this, all people will know that you are My disciples if you have love for one another" (John 13:34-35).
When we love other people, we resemble God in this and spread His light. When we love others, we also obey the commandments God has given. After all, if you love someone, you will not kill them, deceive them, or spread lies about them. On the contrary, love seeks the good for the other person.
To love is beautiful but sometimes difficult. It cost Jesus His life. It can also cost us a lot. Are you ready to do that? How far are you willing to go?
About this Plan
Every person has certain character traits that he or she is born with. That makes us all unique. However, we can also consciously choose to develop certain virtues. These help us to live according to God's will and contribute to the well-being of others. The Bible gives us some valuable guidance in this regard.
