It Does Not Take Much

ForeverJesus7

- And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

-  Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up;

- does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;

- does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth;

- bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

- Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away.

- For we know in part and we prophecy in part.

- But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.

- When I was a child, I spoke 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 in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know, just as I also am known.

- And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

      Someone's going to pay for it, if he doesn't release them. We know the warnings about offending 'little ones'. I think it can be literal people, and also little ones spiritually, young in the faith.

        Amen my friend. We should pray for our leaders instead of down talking them.
        Remember that is why the Israelites ended up spending forty years wondering in the desert. No president is perfect, but God appointed us our leaders.
        God bless the USA.
        Persistence is key

        Thank you. I don't usually talk politics. I was just responding to the first two comments.
