A SPELLING LESSON
1Corinthians 13:1-13
We marvel at the life Jesus lived and gave for us. One word explains it all: his love. What is love? Trace Jesus’ steps; then you will know. The practical spelling of love is J-e-s-u-s. We know it only as we know him. It was his love that gave meaning to everything said and done. No matter what talents we have, the real thing’s lacking unless love’s the driving power within. The rest makes statistics chiefly.

NO GAPS PLEASE
Matthew 22:34-40
We are to give God the devotion of our whole life. Our life is to be lived straight out and on in following unswervingly after him. We are not to start his way and then take a day off in the direction of self-interest. If we do, perplexities and doubts thicken with every step. The secret of the true life is bound up in the unfaltering purpose to please him perfectly. And love of him begets love for others.

DO YOU UNDERSTAND?
Galatians 6:1-10
Love understands. When Jesus’ love controls the life, it makes the heart full of the sympathy that thinks and understands. A heart like his is quick and gentle with the one needing help, because it understands. It reaches in to the human spirit. It eases the strain and stress of the heavy load, because it understands how to unload hurts and griefs and cares. We all love the human touch and sympathy. True sympathy is ability to understand.

LIVING IT FIRST
Luke 10:25-37
We’ll always find that whatever Jesus asks us to do, he has done. He has done it first, and he has done it most. He has shown us the way to do it. When we help others let us do it his way, and for his sake. The motive in one’s action determines the power in it. If our helping others is for his sake, there’s an added touch of help over and above the thing done.

STRENGTH ENOUGH TO WAIT
Isaiah 40:25-31
When we learn to wait for our Lord’s lead in everything, we shall know the strength that finds its climax in an even, steady walk. Many of us are lacking in the strength we so covet. But God gives full power for every task he appoints. Waiting, holding oneself true to his lead—this is the secret of strength. And anything that falls out of the line of obedience is a waste of time and strength. Watch for his leading.
