Daily Bible Reading – June 2022: God’s Renewing Word of New Life in the SpiritSample

June 28

Introduction

In today’s reading, Paul describes how love is to be shown toward others. While there are things we don’t yet fully understand, we grow in our knowledge of God when we act in love.

Scripture Reading

1 Corinthians 13:1-13

Today’s Key Verse:1 Corinthians 13:7

Love never gives up; and its faith, hope, and patience never fail.

Reflect

The word “love” in today’s reading is the Greek word “agape,” which refers to God’s love (see John 3:16; Romans 5:5-8) and the kind of self-giving love God’s followers are to show toward others. How many times does the word “love” appear in 1 Corinthians 13? What does today’s reading teach you about love?

Pray

Holy God, your love never fails. Teach me to love with patience and kindness and love without jealousy or conceit. Thank you for your steadfast and eternal love. Amen.
