What Matters Most

What matters most in the believer's life is not how smart, wealthy, popular, famous or well-liked you are; but how well you love.
1 Corinthians 13:1  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.
What is real love? It suffers long, is kind, doesn't envy, and doesn't brag. Love is humble, treats others with compassion, consideration, and respect. Love is never selfish or self-centered.
How well do you love? Do you love God more than anything else in the world? Do you love others like God loves them?
 WHAT IS LOVE? (anonymous)
It is silence--when your words would hurt
It is patience--when your neighbor's curt
It is deafness--when a scandal flows
It is thoughtfulness--for other's woes
It is promptness--when stern duty calls
It is courage--when misfortune falls
