LOVE IS ALL WE NEED
1 Corinthians 16:13-(14)
Do everything in love.
Mary moved into a new apartment and there was this old woman living in the neighbourhood who hated and disregards her so much that she would deliberately throw faeces into her backyard without her knowledge. This went on for a while. One day, the old woman had a heart attack and was rushed to the hospital. Mary was among the first to visit her at the hospital and she did not go empty handed; she went with fresh rose flowers. The old woman was amazed to see her and then apologized for all the evil she did to her confessing that she was responsible for the faeces found in her garden.
The young lady gave her the lovely roses she brought and she was so delighted that she asked where she got them from. “This beautiful roses came from the faeces you threw into my backyard” responded Mary (Author unknown) Hmm… when the world throws dirt at you, don’t let it stick (Luke 23:34). When they play the drumbeat of war, you sing a tune of peace and forgiveness (Colossians 3:13). Because, there is a beautiful rose waiting to spring up. And when the Lord is through with you, your life shall take your enemies by surprise (Psalms 23:5)
Therefore, Beloved, stay your course. Don’t be moved. Love will always win above hate (Proverbs 16:7); never forget that. Be Born Again!
PRAYER

NOTHING SHALL BE DONE WITHOUT YOUR PERMISSION
