Day 15: Favorite Bible verse
It's more than just one verse...its the whole chapter.
Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
And
though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries, and
all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I could remove
mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
And though I bestow
all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned,
and have not chairtly, if profiteth me nothing.
Charity suffereth long, and is kind; charity evnieth not; charity vaunteth not itself, is not puffed up,
Doth no tbehave itself unseemly, seeketh not her own, is not easily provoked, thinketh no evil;
Rejoiceth not in iniquity, but rejoiceth in the truth;
Beareth all things, believeth all things, hopeth all things, endureth all things.
Charity
never faileth: but whether there be prophecies, they shall fail;
whether there be tongues, they shall ease; whether there be knowldege,
it shall vanish away.
For we know in party, and we prophesy in part.
But when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in party shall be done away.
When
I was a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child, I thought
as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things.
For
now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face: now I know
in party; but then shall I know even as also I am known.
And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three; but the greatest of these is charity.
1 Corinthians 13: 1-13
