February 16
Introduction
The apostle Paul describes how love is to be shown toward others. While there are things we don’t yet fully understand, when we act in love we grow in our knowledge of God.
Today’s Scripture: 1 Corinthians 13:7
Love never gives up; and its faith, hope, and patience never fail.
Today’s Reading
1 Corinthians 13:1-13
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 to love without jealousy or conceit. Thank you for your steadfast and eternal love. Amen.
Prayer Concern
Those who are harboring grudges
Tomorrow’s Reading
Colossians 1:1-23: Paul thanks the believers in Colossae for their faith.
Scripture
